Cool. How does the viscious limited slip compare to the R's? I had a '97 Prelude (base model) and understeer was my best friend.

rear arms are longer than the front arms, offsetting the car so that it sticks more of the rear out.. it makes it easier to open the doors without damaging them on the lift..

Re: OT: New toys for me.. But not for the R.. (CPR)
why not? it's a structure just like a house is. depends on what kind of doors are on the barn. if it's just a big 2x4 keeping the doors shut, then you're right, it'd be pointless. but if he's got big metal doors then something could be done.
if it is just a regular barn, i wouldn't be keeping 2 valuable cars in there plus all the tools and equipment.

big metal doors, all doors have locking systems in place, and key only deadbolts.. there is other security, I just don't think it's good to give away all your secrets on a public forum like this..
besides, my neighbor has nothing else to do but provide "neighborhood watch" and likes to shoot first and ask questions later.. and, not to mention, good insurance is always comforting.. they are all only material possesions after all and are replaceable(just putting things in perspective a bit)..

40k miles on it.. I picked it up for just under 15k.. has a few dings, etc on the outside, but the interior and mechanical stuff is perfect..

I'd like to think that you're in a safe area. Rural IL isn't exactly high theft for a car like that.

yeah, i would agree also.. my dad's cars are more likely to be sought after, but not that seriously..
