Mogz,
You come down here often enough so maybe sometime in October would be good, I think it'd make for a good shoot!

All accept the Ferrari, Its a co-ownership between my father and I. We both wanted the car and neither of us wanted to front the cash so we split it. I get it in the summer he gets it in the winter. Occasionally I leave him my carrera for exchange though. 3rd 911 for me.

Your funny, I see where you are going with this. I buy my own toys, with the money I have earned.
My father still is a generous guy though.

Im thinking about it,
I have 2 concerns:
1. I live in a townhouse and have an underground garage, it scraps a hair now when i come in. ( the driveway doesnt allow for pulling in at an angle. )

2. I LOVE the PASM option. So I definetly want to keep that. (no coilovers) But Ive heard that the car gets a little bouncy when you just change the springs. So im still doing research on the subject.

For what it is worth, I have just H&R springs and they aren't bouncy.

Blakt out,

do you have PASM?

Did the ride qaulity suffer? I heard H&R is one of the stiffer springs that are out there.
