also, how are you clearing your fenders with the wide setup? Are you just running a super tall ride height?

I am so glad I clicked on this thread. I love it. I've got an 87is myself, but ditched the cow catcher for some euro bumps. Looking at your pics, i'm regretting not keeping them. Your car looks the business... especially with the 10 inch rims.

Ya it seems if you go any lower than say 2/1.5 inches on these cars you WILL get bump steer. No matter how you have your shit set up. I am about to raise my car up as soon as I get shocks to get rid of my BS. It's very annoying on a DD.

Actually if you get the Ground Control tie rod spacers they help. They do not recomend them for street use though. Id have them if they were legal for my class.

That looks really serious! Looks awesome with 15x10s on it. I hope that lady payed for a new set of startecs!

Sadly no she didnt. Her insurance would only buy OE. Though $110 for those so not to bad. I bought the cheep china knock offs. I wired the other lamp to the brakes. So now I have a huge brake light thus now that lady wont hit me again.

Care to share your dual rate spring setup?

Its a 525 main spring with a 325lbs helper. The OE struts are really long. And I only wanted about a two in drop to avoid bump steer.
