I donno what you're doing at the track, but i was at the track every other weekend the last two summers @ 400+ whp and my clutch is still going strong... maybe subbies = FTW? hahahaha.
I already have a new clutch installed, my old stock clutch at least had 10 lauches with it with track days and it lasted me an entire year. If you search, people smoked their clutch the first 8000k so I don't see anything funny. I know the stock STI clutch is much better...all i can say is STI clutch FTW, STI car FTL

hah, you're *****ing about soft suspension and num steering when you'll be throwing coils (springs in your case) on anyways?

And no, drag racing is weak anyways.

What you want is Flex or MonoFlex if you want to stick with teins... not only will you be losing suspension travel as you 'lower' the car, you'll also be changing the spring rates... not to mention not being able to corner balance the car afterwards...

I'm going to have to agree with Robo. The SSs aren't that great when you look at the other options out there. The Tein Monoflex, KW V3s. I'm going another route but

I guess I'll be getting quotes for the monoflex then ...its not about the bumpiness of the ride, it has to do with how it corners. With soft springs like eibach you feel like you are flowing through the corner, it felt like crap when I take the high speed curves
