my koni yellows have 60239489028e59082904580938949023890482903784092378 907450928l29083490821kls9984209384098200 "stiffness" adjustments

Steve: On my new car I went ahead and did the extended top hats. However, I would think that moving the stroke on a shock up too high could negatively effect the shock. I'm not sure if it's worth it yet, I'm still playing with the suspension.

I know these 2 guys, one is dressing up like a mexican, he slicked his hair back, has aviators, a mustache, bandana, etc. The other guy is dressed up like a border patrol.

I've been considering them as well. I have a few more tweaks in store before I go that next step however.

Yeah, that's true. My friend drove from Oklahoma to Michigan to buy an ITR ('00 jdm front, 50k miles), and drove it back. The guys he bought it from drove 11 hours to Oklahoma and tried to steal it back. They got busted and went to jail. .

Nobody likes Hondas in my town either. I always see people laughing at my car in the rear view mirror. People just don't get it. That's fine.

No way. Russian mafia got mine. Found it a month later stripped to the bone 30 miles away from where I parked it, with a dozen other cars.

BTW, I'm guessing it's an E46? SMG or manual?
Not a big fan of E46s, I have a mod'd E36.

Yea up here in Seattle cars get flat bedded all the time too it really sucks you cant leave your car any where, I have 3 cars so I dont have to drive the hatch daily.



As far as the suspension debate goes most people out there will be fine with what ever coilover they choose as long as the craftsmanship is good. Chances are you will never be able to tell the difference in the dampening since most people that just daily with coilovers only feel spring stiffness. If you ever get into tracking or driving your car hard you will discover with experience which ones work well and which dont.......also which work well on and off the track. A friend of mine has Spoon coilovers and I would not want to attack a mountain road with them but im sure they kick *** on a smooth road course.

im going on 30 btw and have owned many modded rwd and fwd cars so I have had alot of suspension "experiments" lol
