No, none yet. My car's still completely stock (except the Borla exhaust). :)

Oh, so those are the stock springs? Your car sure looks lower than mine did when I first got it.

Hmmm, I think that's because of the compression. If you look at the picture I'm going through a right-hand bend and uphill... Although it's nothing compared to the Fuchsroehre-compression, I'd like to see a picture of my car there (Fuchsroehre is a quick change from downhill to uphill, going maybe about 125 mph, that was the fastest I dared to drive there, Roy can also tell you something about it ;) ).
I think SFCs can help there concerning the stability of the car. I thought of them as my next mod.

You're right. Thanks for spelling it out. I am a bit slow sometimes. :)

You have sticky tires, I should win the uphill sections though. ;)

ja them few hp suck for sure on the long uphill stretches :( . but who says I am coming with the same car? either gonna stick them sticky tires on the camaro :idea: or gonna stick that V8 into the corolla instead... :shock: would be a fast car with the lower weight... or just take the dodge when I can talk them into taking the curbing off... :roll: J/K

Now, that would be something special, you should do that. ;)

Too true. I'm guessing the conversion alone would be very expensive.

in there, the sound is from the landmower in the trunk, can't find the switch to turn it off.... :lol: :wink:
