I lowered my car to a reasonable manner such that I don't have anymore wheel gap, but I'm not "slammed" by my definition. Wouldn't mind dropping it a little more but I don't have a camber kit and it just woudln't be a good idea..

I will most definitely not drop my car, let alone "slam" it. LOL!

I really want to put on some Tein H-tech springs on my car. But at the same time, I don't want to sacrifice ride comfort.

Dan i fine that Tein have a harder ride to them, and i fine Eibach still give you that nice comfort ride. I have used both, and i will pick Eibach over Tein any day of the week.

I'm finally happy with a vehicle at stock ride height (ie: stock suspension setup). And stock headlights. And stock hood / trunk lids. And stock audio. And stock exhaust. And stock shiftknob. And stock intake. And stock header. And stock motor. And stock -- what's happening to me?!




I think I'm growing up. Finally.

I look both ways before going through an intersection after i'd seen that vid.

80kph T-bone, not one occupant would have survived that.

Na. People still need pickup trucks and massive SUVs to take their lunch to work.
