were you the guy that posted in the comments of the "favorites of h20"? (Dave T)

my tire sizes are 185/45 front and 175/55 rear. i'm trying to get a tri link setup to fix the rear end geopmetry. g-force went out of business and i don't know where else to get a tri-link and i am too lazy to make one.

do you have any pics of your fb?

yup! that was me. I do have pics somewhere but its not much to look at. I'm working on it and hope for it to be going for the spring. Its currently got roller primer from the p/o but it does have a nice strong engine setup and clean re-done black interior which is why I bought it. I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to do with the suspension....possibly cut the springs I have for now, or do it right. Not sure. I want to go low, not as low as yours but still low as long as I can still autocross without losing too much handling.

375f and 200r. i used to bottom out the front before making the new struts. since making the front struts i don't bottom the suspension out. however if i hit a big enough bump quick enough the tires will rub on the inner fender
