The biggest changes came from the KW coilovers' excellent comfort on the road and incredible balance in the twists. Between those and monoball thrust arms from Fall Line, the car is the way it *should have* come from the factory. So predictable, compliant and yet composed. Just a great time since doing the mods last month.

Very nice car prop. Very sad story. You've mentioned it before, but still, always sad to hear news like that from fellow forum members.
