and gave her a good rodgering, just to check it. man, this is a nice difference., yes, yes, yes. brought her back, put up on ramps, and when the exhaust is cooled off, i'm going down to go over it all, give it the scope out.
stuff sqeaked like hell for the first few miles, getting itself settled, i guess, then it shut up and is quiet still, coming in.
hard to really feel it on the pubic roads, though, but i reckon i'll get the chance this saturday at the DATR autocross sessions, yow!

i installed H&R 21mm on stiff a little while ago and also have squeeks when
i go over steep ramps and bumps (like the end of my driveway) although
it's not nearly as noticable in the summer.
and always good to finish it off with a jibba

25mm rear bar on stock suspension could make the car pretty tail
happy on the gravel roads you normally drive. Seriously, be careful.

the heavy tail could make some turns on those pubic roads pretty hairy... haha, alright i'm done.

totally seems good, but it is the weekend swell of dumbasses on my road, and also, the forest service is doing some intense survey work along the river, bio & hayman related, i suspect, so i haven't really broken it loose yet. i can feel the difference, though, and i really like the difference on the dirt. i wonder if this car can get too tail happy for me, yet. and now, instead of looser, i think the bar actually seems to help carry a little more 'bite' in the corners(you know i am still running the last knobs off off my old blizzaks), maybe just rose coloured glasses, tho.
then i took it down 24, to the pubic canyon between manitou and crystal park, and took 3 or 4 laps, up and down, crazy man, crazy, i like it tight. this is great
anyhow, i wanted to take it all the way, and check it out, then back off if necessary. if i hadn't, i'd always wonder.
yummy, yummy, i'm fully checking it out at the limit tomorrow on the pavement at DATR autocross. are you coming saturday and/or sunday, please?
and of course, i'll finally spend the money on the shs when i've beaten the last pulp out of this, and fully gotten everything out of this stuff, and it has to, has to, be replaced. pragmatic
