Eibachs are on!

Well, no surprise, the behavior of the Max change dramatically. The handling is greatly improved in curves and acceleration from a stop, with not much penalty in ride comfort (since I owned Integras and Talons in the past, I knew what to expect). I took the Max on a familiar curve @ 140 kph monday on the stock springs and didn't want to push it more; today, I went on it @ 165kph without a sweat. So, if you ask me what should be the first mod choice, that would be it.

Speaking of mods : after 14 days of ownership, here is the list in my sig. Am I mad? Is it all your fault ? You decide!

Yeah, I put on H&R yesterday. I must say I am very happy both handling/comfort and look. This should have been my first mod.

No you aint mad, you just crazy!

Keep on modding, it will never stop. Will get to a point where you want to just buy another car just to do it all over again.

I second that. Suspension is a MUST and should go first.

Honestly what should be first is about $5000 ready after you buy the car to buy about 5gs in mods.
