Well what is to be considered is the cost, time and reliability of a custom car vs a stock one. For only having 1 car I would have to take a stock one.

damn you weekly meeters...you should have a meet in duluth :P

Jeff did you read that topgear magazine yet?

So some random ppl post up but are they coming to CED meet?! Cant believe devin cant come AGAIN.... Did brett say he is coming yet?

No kidding. COD4 has gotten too repetitive for me. All I play is Rock Band 2 and NHL '09 now. November needs to hurry up and get here. lol

I have a PS3. FPS are for computers though. I pissed so many people off in CoD 4.

Also, I may have a Hahn exhaust and Sportlines on the way shortly. And I'll also know more about the coilovers I want later tonight, so I'll have to decide to go with coilovers or the exhaust/sportline combo.

so for my car which has the goofy ass SC SS tire size...get the
225/40 ? 225/45 is slightly taller than stock but a shorter sidewall would be good for the racing i think...

cuda- if you can, coilovers are well worth it, but what kind?

B&G RS2

It'd cost me another $400 or so on top of the $910 I have in store credit. I know of two people that have reported problems with them on SS/TC. The solution this guy is trying is removing the sway bar end links.

removing sway bar links to lower a car??

wow, i'd rather keep the sway bar functional, with a decent spring like the sportlines instead of getting coil overs..

especially if you don't know anything about the adjustability of coilovers, its not hard to make them handle worse than stock (probably even worse without the sway bar)

JFC yeah dont get those coilovers if you have to do that. Prolly ruin the handling after modifying the suspension to get them to fit.

surprisingly jeff's SS has the eibach springs and it handles really good, its low but just drive careful. Im still debating the coilovers thing... I'll think harder when my struts go wait...i think they are gone now :P

So yeah how much lower do those springs drop it? cuz if you want to drive it in the winter...just be prepared for having a lowered car. I mean snow tires yes help but being lower sucks *****. I just got stuck in a parking lot cuz I pulled into a snow bank and got hung up ON snow...

Oh if you get coilovers have that "guy" tune them, he is a wizard.

I own W@W and HATE it. Not a fan of WW2 games I guess and their weapons.

I only game on the PS3 and can't stand the 360. I was about to buy one, but my brother is now on his 8TH system (RRoD on his previous seven), and my cousin is on his 3rd. NO thanks.

I do on occasion play COD4 and would happily team up with any of you guys if you're any good. I am good at all game modes (but especially S&D).

If you guys wanna play sometime, add me up.

PSNetwork ID's: Sic_Wild_Child and gr3y_f0x_n1nja. I am usually only on my Sic_Wild_Child ID though. I only use my other one when I am playing with my bro.
