Good imfo! I have experimented myself with my suspension and am pretty happy where it is now. I have treid a few shocks,spring and bar combos and have settled on the KYB AGX adjustables,H&R race springs and sways.I am running 1.5 degrees camber up frt. and am going to try 3 in the back due to the last outing and tire wear.I like the toe 1/8" toe in up frt. and 1/16" toe in out back.It feels good at those numbers.

It looks like the Enkeis are on.....backorder! :evil:

So....I just ordered the Motegis. It's only money,right?

I would just spent it on something else just as useless,like bald tires. :wink:

Now I have to sweat out my new drivers license showing up before Aug 3rd. or I won't get across the border. The temporary they issued me today is not valid for identification purposes and I don't have a passport.
...and the old license expires on Aug. 2nd. :cry:

The Registry said 7-10 days for my hard copy license to arrrive.Yea,right.

I believe (from my past experience) that a Birth Certificate will suffice.
Check me on that.

They said a Passport OR...birth certificate AND government issued picture I.D. required to cross till Jan '09 and then it will be Passport only.
I was going to apply for a Passport but they needed me to mail my certified birth cert. to them and the passport would not come back for 3-4 weeks. Too much time to make it for Aug. 3rd.

So I figured the cert. birth cert. and new license would be OK till the Registry handed me my new temp license on a piece of toilet paper.

Since when don't you get a hard license at the Registry?

I just renewd my son's passport and I had the new one back in a week. There is a passport center in Boston now. We did not pay the extra free too.
