#30596, "Look at that body roll!!!!"


          

Well as some of you may know I posted in the regional forums that a couple of friend and I were going to "Tail the Dragon" last weekend. They finally got some pics posted online of people that were up there so I figured I would post a link. Next time I think I am going to have some swaybars and better tires! Damn RS doesnt even have a rear sway bar, I think it will make a HUGE difference. The cars that I went up with were a Del Sol, 240SX(SR swap), Solstice turbo. Let me know what you think.

They are from sunday July 1,2007 and the 2gnt is on page 13 and 18 if the links don't work!

Buy the Prothane suspension kit. It will make a world of difference in handling since it won't have near the deflection of the stock rubber bushings. Word of warning: Without the proper tools it will be a bitch and while you are in there you may discover that your car may need new ball joints. Mine did. I guess that is what I get for driving a car with 145K miles on stock ball joints and control arms.

How can anybody have fun driving a road with that many cars on it? Totally random out there, imo. Typical Honda missing the front bumper and some cardboard to hide the tiny engine. LOL

Damn that thing looks low going around those turns.

The honda seems to be missing a bumper and the camaro owner seems to be missing a mullet

edit: that blue 350z looks sexy

I have NO suspension mods at the moment... emoji but I think that will change when I can scrounge up some change. The road was not that busy, it was but when you run up on some people that are going slow they tend to pull off the road, I guess their used to it. It looks low in some pics just because of the body roll, I have a 195/60/14(little smaller than stock I beleive(not sure)) and stock everything else for handling. Its funny because the Honda got pulled in Tennesse for a "No bumper violation" the cop said it was new and that he would only give him a warning this time, he has the warning to prove it. He just got his front end taken off in a parking lot.
