i havent heard anything as of yet for a meet.

as for my setup, I have eibach prokit, supposed to be a 1.25 drop, but more like a 1" drop.
Tokico's all around, and ST front and rear sway bars.

Ive recently added the Courtesy w/STILLEN sticker FSTB. I dont notice any dif since adding the FSTB.

My camber is off by a bit, 1.5degrees on both sides, the left tire is down to the wire mesh,
Looks like ill be busy tryin to correct that problem.

The exhaust sys. is a new Nissan downpipe, with a Vibrant high flow cat, no res, and the straight thru muffler. all 2.25 custom aluminized piping.

The complete exhaust set me back $1000 CDN.
CAT- $99CDN
Muffler-$200CDN cash
Downpipe- $399
I installed the downpipe,
but the rest was done at a shop for $300 cash.
The rest is good ol' TAX.
So all in all , not too bad.

Cool....

Your suspension setup is how I want mine....right down to the wheels. How is the handling? So far I have the Eibach/Tokico combo and the FSTB. I'm gonna upgrade to the st sways in a month or two(did your mounts break yet?). My stock rear bar is comming off the strut mounting place..YIKES I also want the 97-99SE wheels like you have.

My handling is pretty decent but by no means great. With the puny stock bars the car still leans a good bit in hard turns and the 15 inch wheels with 205/65 ballon tires don't help. Happy with your setup?

happy , well , yes and no
yes as in it handles almost like a little civic,
no due to the fact i no longer have a confortable car to drive. I feel every bump on the road.

The first pieces to go in were the ST bars
right away the ride was stiffened up, almost no body roll,

then i added the springs and shocks. That was it, I can take corners hard and the car stays level. Although my 16's have crappy goodyears on em, she still hooks.
I have yokohama a520 on my stock 15"rims. Those alone made a dif in cornering, lotsa body roll, but she stayed on the asphalt!

Then i added the FSTB, and nothing feels dif. Oh well, maybe it makes a dif when the car has stock suspension.
Im gonna try it on my friends dads max(the fstb)

I have to fix my camber b4 I put new tires on, i might be goin with the bridestone pole position s-O2 tire in 205 55 16
I think 215 is too wide to run on the 1/4 for the power im running, which is basically stock power.
