The suspension slope is one of the slipperiest. Its really hard on guys who come into the project thinking they'll only replace "one or two" things. Come in expecting to replace every damn thing under the car, and you'll be fine.

That's what happened to me, but really it was a whole care re-do.

My car is at Matt's geting an alignment job right now.
I know it's in good hands and I'm really feeling guilty cause he's working late and I'm goofing off.
Thanks Matt!

Mark: your stock torsion bar set up is 19/23. Jim was talking about after market 21mm torsion bars with his 26mm torsion bars.

That is a nice set up for the street car that sees track time.

I used to, but sold them off last month. I think 21mm's will pop up from time to time as people slide further down that slippery slope.

Are they the stock turbo bars or aftermarket bars? If aftermarket, what brand?
