Default Woohoo! Just picked her up yesterday!





06 Black Cherry, 5 speed, with 37 miles on her...

Just warning you, I'm about to litter this forum with all sorts of ridiculious questions!

Thanks guys!

I'm reading away right now... learnin some stuff...

Plans:

sound deadening
wheels/tires
shift ****
suspension (not lowering, just sways and such.)
small, inconspicous subwoofer

I think that's it for now... Any input on the above??

I like them all, but even a slight drop on springs looks and handles so much better.

Max,

How slight are we talking? I'm all for increasing the handling, but I do need to drive the car though PA winters, and I don't want the ride to be too harsh...

I'll start searching for this info, but if you happen to know off hand....

thanks!

You'd be surprised what an inch will do, but it may be a concern in winters, I didn't realize this was a problem for you.

I installed my springs after the crappy winter we had, so I do not yet have any personal experience with them and snow.

Yeah..... It's kind of like a moped. They're a lot of fun to ride but you're not sure if you want your friends to see you with it.

Grats on the new box. I almost crapped myself when I first saw it, thinking it was a Salsa Red xB.
