Yeah Maurico did them for me. If you guys need paint work done take it to him! These are my old SE's that used to be bronze. A LONG time ago I bent one but was lucky enough to find a replacment. The color on the new one did not match the old 3 so I had them repainted. See you guys at the Rally Sport Direct meet.

Maurico is the the man for paint work I would recommend him to anyone.

If anyone is looking for a stock steering wheel check out my for sale thread. I will offer it cheaper for locals.

Thats not right what kind of coils are they?

I went to some korean restaurant off 33rd and redwood tonight and a white Evo X pulled in. It was white and had rally art decals on he windshield and HKS stickers on the fenders. But if your a member nice car! It had a killer rear spoiler that I have never seen on an X before. It was higher than the SSS spoiler.

im right there with ya bro, got in late from shawn's last night and had to take care of my little boy. he's a little sick so he wakes up in the middle of the night stuffed up and crap. i feel so sorry for him because i cant do much but give him his medicine, warm compressed and compassion.

on a lighter note, my Rota Grids should be at my door when i come home from work today!!!!!! dammit i cant wait. on top of that my tires are supposed to be a week out. 265 NT-05's FTW!!!

./agreed ... I'd like to know what the free length of the coil spring is ...

One thing that "toonerz" get into when doing suspension is going with a tire to far inboard and rubs against a spring ... so they cut the spring length way back and try to push the adjustment way up.

One real dangerous thing to look for is if that suspension goes fully extended in negative travel, it can pull a spring off of a perch and when it comes back down start to gouge in the shock body / perch. Not good.

I think I'm running 8" free length springs, and need to put a helper spring and helper perch on my rears. The helper spring puts just enough preload at full extension to guide the spring back onto the perch.

I think we all know at some point you 'will' lift a rear tire in the EVO. Keep them springs on teh perches. =D

It could also be something super simple as in undersprung springs. Get thee some harder springs.
