Hey guys

I run the H&R V-8 springs. The revalved Bilstein
Sports +10% compression and +30% rebound are a must do
thing as far as I'm concerned.  
The S6+ springs would need an even heavier revalve job
to control the extra spring rate, at least in front. 
Personally the S6+ springs  I think would make the car
understeer even more and really ought to have the HSRB
in the rear to counter the front spring rate.

I posted my alignment specs with 2B and ECS plates up
front.

I have OZ SL wheels weigh what?, 8-9lbs les per wheel
than 17"  AVUS wheels?  You gotta feel that.  And with
SO-3's you've got bricks on the corners.

I'm waiting for teh revalved rear shocks to return and
then I'll evaluate the car as a whole.  I have the
HSRB coming also and then I may still want to bump teh
rebound in front just a tad more.

By then I'll be shoveling snow I think.

Neil
