Hey guys, I'm the president of Equipe Rapide. We would love to have you out to our autocross. I would be happy to set up a ft86 group at the autocross with instructors and trophies etc... We autocross once per month. You get 8 runs on the course for $40 and have a chance to win cash and trophies. Our event this Sunday August 4th is a great one to attend because all the entry fees are being donated to a charity. You can see more information on the autocross forum on this website or go to our website at www.autocross.com/er.

Is anyone here riding on BC Coilovers or KWV3s? Wanted to see the difference between the two

Joeprelude · 08-08-2013, 10:20 PM

So on the way back from Austin, I was driving a little faster than legal. Went to pass someone, got near redline, and POW!!!!! My front lip got a little too much down force and pulled the bolts out in the front of the lip. Diagnosis: 2 big holes where it dragged on the ground. But already got a way to mount and fix that issue. I'll post pics of the repair after its completed. ...

I'm looking to feature some vehicles on the blog, if you're interested let me know what you have, a mod list, and preferably a recent image of it. Got a project and an awesome garage, then I'm also down to shoot. Got an idea for the blog, I'd love to hear it.

Danh down in Houston is rocking KWV3s and I rode in his car down lime creek in Austin and it rode and performed very well, but I think itd perform better on a track.

We are running KWs in our turbo'd FR-S... They ride like a dream.
But we also run them in our 201mph STi and our Mexico STi and a few others. They are by far my favorite coilovers in that price range. Totally worth the money!

Acree · 08-09-2013, 03:20 PM

Once they're out, AST's should be a good alternative to KWs. Anyone have any experience with them on other platforms?

awdtuning · 08-09-2013, 03:24 PM

Any experience with the KWs or the ASTs? We have experience with both. We have a few Subies that run ASTs and LOVE them! They are amazing!
And I have a few Nissan 350z/370z owners (in addition to our Subaru and FR-S owners) with KWs and love them. If both were the exact same price I would probably go with ASTs, but that's a hard choice because they are both excellent options!

AST's will be an option on this platform very soon! I'm looking forward to them. EvoD runs AST's exclusively on their race Evos.

Spotted you at the olive garden at about 8.

Acree · 08-14-2013, 12:47 PM

Does anyone know someone with the ARK Grip Exhaust on their car? I'd really like to hear this before I buy it sight unseen.

These are the headlights I was talking about at one of the meets
