I see you've had the Zeal's for a while. Would you say it was worth it? My Cusco's are starting to die and the spring rate is way too high for the roads here, ie hit a bump on an on ramp at 60mph can change direction, lol. I'm looking at 99% street duty, but obviously least amount of roll and dive as possible. Are you happy with the 8/6 swift?

sorry, not going to part it out. i have another g coming in from some epsilons ive had sitting around for years and years, so looks like the problems vivian has will get fixed finally, so she will probably not be up for sale much longer, who knows. might be getting a reliable DD as well

yes and no, i could use the money, but i really want to do the swap eventually and have beast power to match the looks of the car after paint...
i would consider selling it for the right price, not forgetting who built it and what has been done to it.....
