I've been "playing" with my new toy. We played, new springs....then we played new shocks/struts.....followed by wheels and tires.....and finished up with a game of zoom-zoom aka Supersprint exhaust....now I'm exhausted

Now that's the shit. Well worth the effort and expense no doubt! What we 535 (lesser) paupers DO NOT need now is any videos, audio grabs or action pics to make us jealous.Originally Posted by pmlmotorsports
Perhaps you can write a piece to tell us how awful the ride quality is, how the handling dynamics and economy are impossible to get right and how you wish you were back at sqaure one with a stock spec car.
Perhaps then we could be happy for once...GP

What a beauty!!!
And as you give us all the specs and reviews, please tell us about the zoom zoom exhaust. I am all about the sound and wish to revel in envy. As many details descriptions about that as possible please.

Some asked for height from center of wheel to upper wheel arch, others wanted ground to upper wheels arch. I am supplying both.Originally Posted by brodee

Well something is definately up with my springs. I'm a good inch lower than you with the same springs and I have a lighter engine.Originally Posted by pmlmotorsports
