I went with the specR's do to reading posts that people chose the standard sport machs and wished they went for the more aggressive spring rate that the specR's have. And I haven't read that they are too harsh for the street. Its an Evo. I do not expect this car to feel like a Lincoln Town Car. I can't wait to drive on them. These ****-techs will be getting tossed da f--k out!!!

I will probably do the roll kit when I do sway bars and end links. Most likely next year. I am not in a hurry for that upgrade, but want to do it eventually.

Speaking of my suspension parts, marshallface, did you ever sell my springs?

Not yet! Still have them. Kid never called me like he was supposed to. Do you need them, or still want me to sell them for you?

Let me know either way!

I am doing the front LCA bushings, anti roll kit, rear trailing arm bushings and bumpsteer bushings. Between those and the intake mani i should have a few nice projects for the winter.

So, there is a car up in Middleton NH that I want to look at. '97 Talon AWD, built motor, tranny, 3052 & all supporting mods. 400WHP on pump...I am thinking about driving up with the cruise next Sunday and checking it out then

It is not cages, and should be pretty streetable...could make for a good Evo replacement for now!

If I do go up for this, that would be awesome if you came! Just need to work out the details for the cruise...thinking about heading up with everyone, heading over to Middleton once we are in the area, checking it out, then meeting back up with everyone.

Ya, I just went over the cruise details, and it looks like I would need to go after leaving Errol, and so wouldn't get to Middleton until about 7:30PM, and wouldn't get home until after 10PM or so...I think Saturday may work out better as well! I'll let you know if this works for the owner or not...
