And you're wrong. Not only you know about it. You posted it here lol.

So in the future when your next thread is car snapped in half when going 100mph, luckily you'll be fine, well know why that happened.
My car is probably one of the most fixed chassis FD out there and I will let anyone bring their FD over and compare it to mine. It CAN be done right and feel like a new car. I have had 26 FDs so I have driven a few...

Jeff is totally right. The big thing here is his CYM was fixed RIGHT, that's the big difference. You get some rednecks just cutting and welding wherever and you WILL have problems. You use an alignment rack, cut on factory spot welds and re-attach a new panel where those spot welds go, and it can be done right.

Remember, the factory took a bunch of stamped steel panels, lined them up, and spot-welded them together. This isn't rocket science, it's not EASY, but what the factory did can be duplicated by a quality shop.
