Not that anyone really cares but there is a reason for losing my coil-overs.

Default Not that anyone really cares but there is a reason for losing my coil-overs.

I'm getting a few emails with assumptive questions implying I didn't like coil-overs.

Not true, loved em'. Although they are not for the faint of heart they are simply wonderful at speed. Period. One just needs t/b certain of wants and desires b/4 making the step as the handling benefits do not come w/o cost in around town, slow speed ride comfort.

I'm in the process of acquiring 40 acres in the back country and building a cabin. Consequently, I need all the ground clearance I can muster. I even oversized the tires on my rat bastard zx3 to gain more clearance. Otherwise, H&Rs (along with Forge MillTech exhaust) would never have come off.

I put the stock exhaust back on because we could not get either center pipe of Forge-Milltech(resonated and non) to hug the haldex as close.

Default So Col. Bogey are you gonna make a mini Track for us TT owners when we take a drive out there.. LOL

Seriously though its good to see you have priorities besides just the car. Glad to see you are putting the money to good use. If I lived near you I'd come over every weekend to help you build your cabin. I hope it all works out for you. I would love to see pics. as you make progress on the cabin.

Such a shame. I always heard 4C was better than 3C ;-)
