Nice chassis/tech video

I don't believe this has been posted before, I was only up on google video a few days ago.

Looks like a instructional video for service tech's, but it has some nice info about the suspension, in the first part. It really is good to see how camber, toe, and caster are all fully adjustable. Not all so-called "sports cars" have that, even if it's not something I'd mess with on my DD.

Man I saw this video summer of 2008. Very odd

And that video was only recently put onto youtube.

Confused?



I still love the video on the tech highlights.

Basically says the 2004 automatic is slow......

I've talked to some techs

I don't know if mathematical issues are their specialties
