Re: We're back. Want to help talk some sense into me? f20c

or maybe hang a t28 or t3 turbo from a stock 4age, plus a plug n play megasquirt from DIY with a "good tune". Drive it with sense for now (if ya can restrain yourself), and worry about a W gearbox later. A well tuned 4agte can range from 'silly quick to monster', and can do it relatively &...

Re: Megan 1.85 lowering springs?

hmmmm... perhaps its the different angle of the photos. Fronts still look almost the same, certainly not almost 2" lower. Red coupe 'stock height' looks like a 4x4 in the rear. My AEs must've all "settled" :) Interest in the thread because I'm gonna get & cut some M2s... like a fe...
