Not buying it, I'm going standalone in the future, so it's not needed, I'm only doing a full swap to get the motor running asap.

........ You're wrong. I'm not getting into it on this thread, but you're just wrong, see ghustle thread.
Ok Chocolate Straw, what you forget to realize is the weight distribution of the car.... The engine, transmission, driver sit on which half of the vehicle?

Kthx.

You have forza? Go on forza and test your idea out w/ any FWD car, enjoy keeping it under control.

[edit]

Also pay up, dyno time is upon us.

Send me your paypal fool and lets get this thing done. You got a date set at the dyno? Im really excited to see what the results will be.

And in regards to your previous accusation of lies. The best way to help a FWD car IN GENERAL is not to try to correct understeer but to try to increase oversteer. Im not talking about rear sway bars and 1500lb rear springs Im simply speaking of stiffening up the rear to minimize understeer. I would prefer stiff rear springs on my CO set-up but I dont want to go through those fools over there using a middle who wants to make a big profit. I want to do it through CJ and Im about to tell everyone on there to PM CJ for a better deal lol.

Do even spring rates for the front and rear, see how you like it. You will understand what misery is.

IDK. I don't use PhotoShop. Too expensive and too non-conformist in the way you would expect to interact with user controls. In that respect, Adobe is a little bit like Apple, (and to a greater extent, Sun Microsystems), where instead of optimizing a familiar paradigm, they arrogantly try to create their own. It might be better, but I'm not going to invest time in the learning curve.

Use GIMP, instead. It's openSource and insanely powerful.

No, he's becoming very annoying to you, and causing you to loose your calm and collective state of mind; (assuming you have one.) Most everyone else ignores him actively with the Org's Ignore List feature, or passively by simply not reading his mindless crap.

Why you don't just do one or the other is a mystery. You're clearly not doing yourself any favors by wasting energy on fools.

Serenity now, my friend.
