that is nice indeed, nice photos

I'm 99.99% decided on the Ronals myself. If you don't mind, I think you mentioned getting them from Volco...how much did they charge?

sha1234 · 06-13-2008, 03:21 PM

i cant remember the exact bill but after taxes and all it was just under 1000

Mr. Red · 06-13-2008, 03:32 PM

Thanks, Bob

True. It's a shame, that's an awesome colour!

Great sizing on the wheels and tires. I'm pretty decided that's the size I'll want to get when I get new wheels. (Maybe, 16s.)

What are "KW" springs? I've never heard of them. What's the spring rate and approx. drop?

sha1234 · 06-14-2008, 02:30 AM

KW!?!?!?!?! NEVER HEARD OF!?!?!?!?!?!?
you need to look around... KW is one of the leaders of high performance suspension parts...
the drop is called 60/40 meaning
60MM front and 40MM rear, whatever inches that is
and the spring rate is progressive so i cant quite tell you

I really, really like your car.
Putting the chrome kidneys back and frenching the lights would be devastating.
