Once said 7 seconds he'd clock.
So his engine he goosed
With much too much boost,
And drove a rod through his block.

Aren't double wishies better for DDing? As in protecting the axle from flying sh**?
I've read that TTLs/Trailing arms are better in racing applications, allowing for easier adjustments, and also the "feel" is more natural, sort of how the tendency of a car to go into understeer vs. oversteer with respect to how "natural" it feels to the driver when you start to plow.
I dunno, I for some reason keep drifting on exit circles in the BG, and it feels very natural to me. I think I've started getting the hang of FF cars. Plus, unlike grandpa who grew up with FR cars, it feels natural to me.
And get some rear sway and strut bars. Stop trying to Takumi everywhere
no rear axles lol
idk about the transition from understeer to oversteer feel- I think this thing would basically just push forever. common wisdom on the Accord forums is that a big rear bar is a recipe for snap oversteer but i think it's more driver error than anything. sway bar from a TL is happening sooner or later, and I can get the FSTB from a 6-6 pretty inexpensively I think.

Oh man, I was thinking of the Hachi when I posted.. LOL.
I mean, you know, I've got that FR BG..
The Integra guys seemed to notice a big difference in terms of getting the most out of their fancy suspensions by adding a RSTB, but not having a sway bar is pretty big too lol.Last edited by Cloud_Strife; 12-29-2016, 03:01 PM.1991 Protege LX 5MT, P/S, A/C, NOW Sun Roof!

The only reason I wouldn't own a P5 is because of OBD 2 since I have to deal with emissions. By far better looking and a way better interior than any first or 3rd gen escort wagon.

Ah well... was worth mentioning
I drove my EGT today for the first time in like a year... put it in storage about 15 mins away to get it out of my driveway / out of the snow. That sure was exciting with icy patches on the roads and rusty brakes lol...Escort GTR -- 11.87 @ 117.6 mph -- 320 HP / 325 Ft. Lbs. @ 23 PSI
