    ah right i just want my car to handle like a go cart lol

    but it feels amazing shifting is more solid for the ultimate shift get the brass shifter cable bushes and shifter base bushing kit from speed source

    Hey Kevin, what did Repco sting you for the Strut bar ?................... does the parcel/privacy shelf still close ?......... it looks close.......... I have been trying to decide for ages whether to do the rear sway bar or a strut bar, can someone please give me some insight into which one is more benefical..... a thicker sway bar or the strut bar............ I'm not to keen on cutting holes in my panels but hey, if I absolutely have to I will................ Oh and what thickness is reasonable for the sway bar......... Thanks.
