X2Board Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Crawford has left a bad taste in the collective mouth of the STI community. I for one give Curt Crawford a penny of my hard earned money.

LittleBlueGT Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Impressions on the CUSCO FSB & RSB, is the car well balanced? Oversteer or understeer?

geddyup Posted March 11, 2006 Author Share Posted March 11, 2006 The girls are a little young for the garage. Besides the only thing being worked on in my garage are bikes and skis. The car stuff is for the pros.I have a shop riht next to my office and the shop fellows love the modded suby. The owner Ryan has an old jag. It goes 150.

geddyup Posted March 11, 2006 Author Share Posted March 11, 2006 Dispite my tire selection the car drives great. Very well balanced and very stable. The only problem with power mods is that they overpower the standard suspention and balance of the car. You really need to stiffin it up with struts/springs, sway bars, end links, and strut braces. The car is stiff enough before you launch to stage 2. For 27k plus 8500 for mods. This is a dream car. that would be a shit ton of money. In america you can make your own path Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
