go to your user control panel and under each thread that you're subscribed to there will be an option saying "unsubscribe" click that and it's all said and done

Sorry, I'm already a loyal KY tester.

On another note, my stealer replaced my starter, plugs, battery and headlight (because of film) on my last visit. My car sounds sooo crazy when it starts, the new starter must crank the motor twice as fast.

were you complaining about a slow starter? or did they notice your starter/battery were not up to par and swapped them out

I just said that it cranks for a few seconds sometimes.

I got a new battery for free after a 1 1/2 years of ownership. Not bad considering most dealers pro-rate them after the first 12 months.

You may want to consult Outlaws Extreme before you do anything. I knolw he had that front, and he has 19's..and still ended up changing out his front to the MS kit..or you may want to talk to the Yellow RX8 guy that came to Seven stock..he ahd the same complaints about that front, and lowering...good luck though. I love that kit.

outlaws also noted at his work there is a very steep parking lot entrance or his house driveway is really steep but im sure if your typical drive doesnt involve any major inclines you'll be fine although youd have to be very cautious ngo.

Yea, I've spoken to both of them in the J-tuned thread. Now that I park at school, the steepest place I would usually have to go up would be my driveway. I'm usually picky about where I go up unless it is during a caravan or something. And my driveway isn't that steep as long as I drive up one wheel at a time, I think I'll be alright.
I can always go learn from lazi, because my car wouldn't even be as low as his. So we'd be about even since my front is farther out. haha...

Ok, not to hi-jack this long LAX meet, I hope to make it on wednesday for sure.
