Yeah....one thing at a time guys...I just spent $600 on the wheels and tires, and I'm putting a high flow cat on it later this week because the stock one blew away from the flange that bolts to the turbo. I'm newly married, got a new house which comes with a new house PAYMENT....so lowering it will be next, but not any time soon unfortunately.

It's stock suspension as far as I know...I don't think it has the sport suspension...although, I do have the sport steering wheel!

I hope to get the center caps on this week too, but they need to be sanded and repainted. They all have pretty substantial chips in the paint. I'll probably work on that tomorrow.

HOW?!? I was trying really hard a couple of days ago to get my car to oversteer or have the rear end walk out on me, but it just wouldn't. Even in the rain, doing a skidpad type test, it just held on. But they are brand new tires. That sucks pretty hard, anyways.

well its a curve rated at 15, and i also hit a really big pothole that for some reason missed my front wheel n only caught the back, and that was before i oversteered. so yea the combo sent me out, and i was in 4th gear.
