Maybe if your 400+ lol I'm at 200 so ya I should lose 50 lbs lol just taking out the spare and trunk panels got me 50 lbs

lol you have to add like 500 pounds of metal to make that thing not bend in half

[RedRyder]

Really? I didn't know subframe connectors and a torque arm weighed that much.

I don't remember adding more than 30lbs of metal to my notchback, and I can't recall it ever bending in half, even with more than 120 track days on it.

[06silverbullet]

wow its a joke guys

[RedRyder]

the Fox Force is not amused.

[06silverbullet]

the fox force is a joke :look: :rofl:

Bobby is the only one that should even have a Fox Force member's card in his wallet :drool:

[RedRyder]

He who laughs last...
Anyway, i'm not here to impress anyone. With the internet everyone is pretty jaded on horsepower figures anyway. If it's not making 500-600hp, people just don't get impressed. Nevermind that the majority of said people are puttin around in sub-300 cars.

[06silverbullet]

well i sold my other car so in less then 2 months i should have my blower 500hp here i come :devil:

[BondoSHO]

Ren and Jaime prove that horsepower doesn't make a car fast. :look:

[RedRyder]

Pffft. My issue is tune related. After I get it down, then it'll be an issue of driver mod.

I'm proud of my fox.

[RedRyder]

20 pounds just by converting to a front coilover setup???

Exactly. Even more if you get rid of the now useless stock a-arms for some tubular MM ones. Total loss almost 40 pounds. :rockon:

[StriderTacticaL]

Yeah I hve coilovers all around and love it no problems at all. All depends on how stiff of a spring u get.

[RedRyder]

Vince, you don't need a kidney belt with coilovers. Jayzus. :no: if you choose wisely, the ride quality is 1000x better than stock. Mine are smooth as butter and completely silent. Sorry to hear you're having issues with yours. :look:
