I'm just interested to see how quickly they go under. I have a feeling they either aren't going to make any money with their business plan, or law enforcement agencies are going to get them shut down.

Ha yah they will def go out of business I would think, although depending on their monhtly coverage rate you never know

In Dubai, some people used to compete monthly in the DMV on who's got the highest number of tickets and who's got the most fines to pay. It's usually all speed traps fines and traffic cameras.

Here's a couple of pictures of my car as it currently sits. Thanks to @Racecomp Engineering and @Pure Automotive Performance for the recent parts and work.

Enkei PF01 17x8 +45 with 235/45/17 Michelin Pilot Supersports sitting on RCE Yellow springs, Koni shocks, and some Whiteline bushings.

And my new sticker!

Stranoparts 22mm front-sway installed successfully. Had a bit of trouble with one of the bolts going back in, had to go at it a few times since it was trying to cross-thread, but other then that a straight-forward job.

Took it out for a little hooning, and oh man, did it make a difference. The OE all-seasons can't keep up with how flat the turn in is now, they just squall. Good thing I've got the ZII's. I can tell over-steer is going to be greatly reduced, so I should be nice and tight on the corners now. We'll see if I can tame the changes at SCCA on Saturday.

Bonus, you can see my newly epoxy'd garage floor in the pics!

Awesome! I have been thinking about this bar

civicdrivr · 04-10-2013, 10:37 PM

Sway bars are a must IMO. I did mine this past weekend (Hotchkis f+r) and the car is even more predictable, corners even flatter, and changes direction immediately.

kanundrum · 04-10-2013, 10:45 PM

Wow haha I really need that Gotta sort out the rest of the suspension in a few months

OrbitalEllipses · 04-11-2013, 12:28 AM

Tune springs THEN swaybars IMO. Unless class restrictions, in which case you're compensating for springs with your swaybars.

BoostinIX · 04-11-2013, 08:02 AM

Woooooooooooo

Also:

Only 50 miles on that tank, see how long it lasts :P

Random thought for the day:

I have a great appreciation for car meets where there are a lot of twins vs random get togethers with the "tuner crowd". Me and Russ stopped by a local meet last night, and other than a couple of STIs we had the nicest cars there, but rather than having fun and talking cars and what not, we spent the night fending off douchebags who have no respect. And Sunday night Russ went to a meet near his house on the way to the movies, and some little wanna be Vin Diesel kids wanted him to street race and we he respectfully declined they harassed him and made "bok bok" chicken noises at him. Stuff like that makes me appreciate when we all get together and actually have a good time hanging out
