LOL....

Just wondering why nopistons link can be posted but not the "other"?

Is it because the "other" was a long time rotor head that got mad at this forum and started a rival forum? They allow links to this site??

Nah, it was because the blocked forum had a couple of members that spammed here (countless times, and after countless warnings). It wouldn't stop so the mods or admins here blocked the words.

The relationship with RCC is slowing being rebuilt... for example you can use the letters RCC now, and the Deals Gap Rotary Rally (which is run by the same guy that started RCC) section are now open and he posts updates here now.

Other forums never got blocked because they didn't have members come over and spam this site.

What about stock struts and Eibach springs?




.[/QUOTE] I had the stock setup with no issues and swapped over to coil overs to troubleshoot a problem. With the coilovers I had the same issue as you that hurt my ET but still had good MPH. I just swapped back to the stock setup after talking to Cris and Enzo....[/QUOTE]


So a good 60 can be had with the wrong suspension? I was thinking once I had that figured out I would be good to go. I am guessing once you reach a certain power more items start playing a role.

So help a brother out.... I have some stock springs/struts coming but I am afraid of the crazy high ride height... Can I us H&R or Eibach's?

Did you go with a very soft spring Ernie, or something standard? I always thought one of the problems with running aftermarket rear suspensions is the stiffness of the springs, doesn't allow the rear to squat and launch properly?

I've got a set of GC's and Koni's, and if I have problems with the rears, I'm gonna switch the stock springs in with Koni's and see how it does.
