^ rofl that video is great. I can't believe they put those clowns they interviewed on TV or even the Supra swerving all over the road (which you couldn't even hear whistling).

Don't go the ghetto route and cut your springs. Spend a couple bucks and do the job right. Just because its free doesn't mean you should do it.

The camber on his front of the rx8 is just horrible, or is that just somehow from the angle that picture was taken at? The blue cars fronts look a bit tilted but the rx8 is bad.
