[s13k1d]

we had a hammer, pb, a tourch, and like 3 people on it. im gonna try and keep soaking it. but was trying to see if anyone had tricks that worked. lol and im not talking about the locking rings frozen. the actual mount to the knuckle to adjust height is frozen to the strut.

[troskinatior]

if your talking to me me and my bro both got to jmhs and we both have 240s (mines better )

[s13k1d]

hah no thats a bike rack. really? i can drive mine kinda decent as long as i take it easy.

[dsastr_clan]

lol thats what i used to think, but not it totally suxs!!!!! i was on the freeway goin like at 40 when my car start fishtailing all over even when i let go the gas and put it in neutral while the car slows down it keeps fishtailing lol an di have some decent weight on the back i think ima get another 80 pounder concrete bag tho

[s13k1d]

is your car stock height? i was doing 40 and didnt have any issues. and mines empty lol

[dsastr_clan]

noo it aint it pretty low and it has a welded diff( which is weird cuz i thought wit a welded diff would ride better in the snow) and have 17 inch tires i noticed it grips better traction with the stockies 15s but the tires are all bald!

[s13k1d]

the welded is prolly why you slip on the highway my damn stock open diff sucks lol

[s13k1d]

well its been a while since i updated. since my last, ive gotten a vlsd, an sr trans, a s14 sr motor(spun a rod bearing due to being revved to 8600 on a dyno). im alos still waiting on my hids i ordered.plans are rebuild the sr crank is still in spec so ill most likely be doing rods, pistons, and cams. arp studs. a good hg.(gotta look into what ones are good) and do a fresh rebuild on the trans.

[s13k1d]
