Nice find Steve.
And its right by the runway too.

 

I've got Progress bars. My first suspension mod and it provided a very different feel on the track.

You have to remember with these things is that you have to have something you're trying to correct. With me I wanted to correct the understeer slightly while getting less body roll. I managed to do that pretty quickly with just the sway bars. The fronts are 3-way adjustable and the rears are 2-way adjustable. What you can do with these is experiment on them at autocross to find out what kind of response from the car you want (ie more understeer, more oversteer, a truly 'neutral' setting, etc.) but the problem is that if you add other things (shocks, strut tower bars, wheels/tires) they will also adjust the way the car responds so if you add something and you lose what you gained from the sways you'll have to adjust those.

In the end though my car is a shitload stiffer side to side and up and down, I have almost the same driving behavior (slight understeer) that you have with the stock setup, which means I can go a helluva lot faster while still not sliding.

I should have prices up next weekend for the partout since it doesn't look like there's anyone I know interested in buying the car as is.

 

I'm bored at work and playing on my computer:

 

No...we need a place in which we can get up to 40 mph legally and safely record it. Little to no traffic would need to be in the area as well. Jon and I made the parking lot at the bowling alley work...but it was a pretty bad arrangement. If the ice rink is like Steve said it will be perfect.

 

I think Danc was referring to the Quaker as our next meeting place, not to do any recordings.

 

I keep bugging my boss to have IT install PS on our computers.
All I do is sit at my desk watching iSpy

 

I'm playing with the distortion features in PaintShop. I like the red version and the neon version. Changed my sig.

 

Figured so.. I noticed the Glowing Edges filter right away

 

Jon + John: Should be alright at the ice rink. The slow speed runs will def. be fine. If you want to do 40 mph the road would work great for that too. There is a hill there too so we could put the engine under load too and get a better sound (perhaps)

Ryan: Did you have endlinks and bushings also? I was looking at the progress sways, but really don't know too much about them.

Looks like you should call up street glow to see if they'll sponsor you!


Final place we're meeting on Friday?


Tom: Its monday at 3pm. You said you were taking delivery today. Put your pants back on (in the relationship sense) and give a 370 update!

 

They came with bushings that i used. I probably wouldn't reuse them and would pick up a new set from Summit if I got used sways.

I have the sways with my stock endlinks. They work fine but allegedly with the stiffer A/M suspension they tend to break occasionaly.

I was going to replace them with RB endlinks prior to deciding to part it out. The RBs are inexpensive but they require drilling into the progress sways for fitment (just need to widen the holes). You can get other endlinks for a little more that don't require drilling but lots of people have the RBs so there are plenty of DIYs

 

Bored playing with PS too...
Click attachment to play animation.

 

Hilarious!



but that would actually be me plowing my way through the turns.

 

PS, how'd you make that. I've been trying to figure out how to make animated gifs

SO: Is we is or is we ain't meeting Friday????

 

Do you have PS CS4?
How are you with layers?
Its actually really simple to do if you have the basic understanding of PS.

 

I have it, but don't use it much. It's much more complicated than Paint Shop. I'm not that brite you know.

 

Like I said, if you have version CS4 and have even basic knowledge of layers (or at least understand what it is) I can guide you step-by-step in minutes.

 

I'll send you a PM Doc... couple things you might be interested in.

 

Yes, but the location has yet to be determined. I need to sit down and figure out how you jerks drive around cones so much faster than I can. And don't say practice because that's just nonsense!

 

Cool, tnx

OK, we won't say that. We'll just talk about you behind your back instead.

 

Outback in Mackedontya?

 

So you want to drive to Canton for a video shoot and then drive all the way to Macedonia for dinner?

 

*shrug* it's on my way home at least and it is more central for everyone
