That wouldn't make any sense. You want it to be stiffer upfront not the back.

theres a difference though, for him to be doing EVERYDAY DD driving, its not advisable to put the stiffer in the rear.

i stiffen and raise the up so it has a "tilted/hot rod" stance as well
that set up is only for the track
i adjust it when i drive it on the streets after
not only cause of comfort, but it looks like a 4X4 with the race settings...

i was just saying it does make sense to stiffen the rear in certain situations, drag strip, but not street...(unless you got something REALLY heavy in the trunk...LOL...like a dead body )

Yes. (as long as the stiffer rate is CURRENTLY in the rear and you're flipping it to the front)

daily driving is better with stiffer springs in the front. handling is better with stiffer springs in the rear.

Also, you don't want a RHD car. It's a pain in the *** when everything here is made for LHD cars. Only way I would want it is if I had a daily. Let's just say driving through drive-throughs with the top off or backwards really gets old after a while </TD></TR></TABLE>
