Congrats on the sale Scott! Will Jeremy be racing in a straight line or with turns?

That should not even be a question, turns are all that count. I will be ripping the Teins off the car first thing and replacing them with some coilovers which should be about the only thing I have to do to it.

$275 or trade for other parts. There is a scratch in one side that can be buffed out other than that it's in great shape

Car is home and the suspension has to go, take a corner hard and it rubs the inside of the fender. Already ordered my coilover tonight to take car of it. Other then that, I just had to mess with the bov to get it to do what I wanted it to. Scott and I drive very differently, I guess. Seems better now that I turned it way down. I am not sure what that does but it seemed to work. I have alot of new things to figure out with this car .

I did not mask it when I drove it home but he did not mask it to drive it up to me either. I am probably going to get a clearbra installed, learned my lesson with my blue one.

I am really to cheap to order the Ohlins, I just ordered some Megan Racing Track coilovers. For the price I don't think you can beat them.

It is going to get plenty of hard driving now I may try and take it to the strip sometime, have to see. Mostly it will be doing daily driving duty and weekend autox/track duty. I will drive it like it was meant to be driven and put somemore miles on it.

Yes .. you can beat them ..

I got a set of Ohlins R&T 'used' with a revalve, for what's going to cost me under $3k.

./cancel_order! ... Get the VishJoeArrd Spec. Ohlins quick!!

Revalve, Springs, Bushings, Works Top Hats / Camber Plates, Helper Centering Springs from HyperCoils, Ohlins R&T with 1500 miles on them.
$3k, Yup .. still a good deal.

Did I mention Ohlin's R&Ts are rebuildable with about $150.00 in seals and a few dollars in labor?
