And stop giving Civics a good name.

Looks hot WITH the mudflaps, although if you took them off you could probably get back at some semis

i want to reaaaally bad... but it's my last year at UConn so I doubt I'll be able to get a week off to go to topeka (plus i should be starting an internship soon... ). Next year I'll definitely be hitting Nats, but I'll be there in Sept if I get lucky somehow...

i dunno if it'll push. kookaburraz was saying I'm gonna oversteer like crazy since the AS304's are so much stickier than the 3's. I guess I'll find out on Sat.

I dyno tune tomorrow or Friday with the MSD BTM and 3" test pipe. Looking at maxing out the T25.... I'm waiting for completion of sale of my z32 wheels + victoracers (should happen this weekend) to buy that T28.

Handles great... but had to really stiffen up the springs just to get it to stop rubbing. I'm running 9/7 kg springs with like an inch of preload all the way around (had just the rears preloaded before and was lifting rear tires going into corners!). I actually think I could be running stiffer springs than I am with these tires as the sidewalls are just that stiff!! With the AS03's in back and 04's in front it's very neutral.... and I would've dominated the event if I wasn't hitting the fender well where the car was previously hit (car had front end damage when I bought it). I BFHed it but a rain storm and tornado warning cancelled the rest of the event
