WTB: 2.5" 8" 500 in/lbs Springs

Checking for price and availability of 2.5" 8" 500 in/lbs Springs

Yes, I prefer Eibach or Hyperco. But why? Work with me, I'm new to this mod.

My new car is getting close and I will be moving on to an upgraded front end.

Re: STS CRX? Anybody?

That wee bit of rust is called "Illinois Lace". What you see is only the Tip of the ice berg.

The only thing that saved the rocker's of the '73 Jag XJ12 I purchased in '83 was the content stream of oil generated by the engine. The head light buckets were rusty, go figure.

It also helps to understand what time of the year you are asking to get into the pracitce events. I have no issue with staying out of the way of those headed to the Nationals. The fall season will offer ample access to seat time. I do agree with George, make an impression. The fact that I have to bu...

Watching the faces of the Miata drivers as I got in their cars was priceless. To a person they could not believe that I could fit, what they did not understand was that gravity is your friend.
