Neil, etc.-

<<<I think we need to revisit the assumption that H&Rs
lower a car more than Eibachs or which is really
lower.  Remember now H&R ships the V8 springs for the S4/6
app.  These springs are heavier than the previous
spring set and the car does not get as low.>>>

Neil, I believe what you are saying is that H&R do not get as low as Eibach
(?).  If so, that would coincide with ECS's claim of H&R drop 1.25" compared
to Eibach dropping 1.5".  To confuse the issue, I've had a few tell me that
the shocks will ALSO influence ride height.  Something like Bilstein will
ride higher than Koni.  Or was that vice versa?  OK, now I'm confusing
myself.

HELL, hey Taka-  looks like we got another 'mission' to tackle @ my place in
August!  I guess I should come up with a schedule of events.  Something
like:

12:00 arrive
12:01 4 wheel slide tire comparisons - how many G's can you pull in my
culdesac?
12:02 police intervention
12:03 wife pays bail (yeah, sure)
12:30 suspension measurements and whoopdeedo course negotiation
12:45 bypass valves - my car sounds more like an X wing fighter from Star
Wars than yours
1:00 exhaust comparisons -  how does YOUR car sound @ redline going up my
street?
1:00.34 neighbors arrive in driveway in lynch mob format
1:01 beer, beer, and more beer
1:15 wives disgusted with our complete lack of attention to them and
repeated bodily emittances

Sound like a plan?
