No need to drop the sub frame on the ND but there is a TON of stuff that needs to be removed in order to get access the front sway. I just decided I'd rather have someone else deal with that

I got a Red Tiger F77.

underscore: Yeah. 9 years here and finally got one. Irony is the camera arrived a week AFTER the Corolla got hit and run.

i dont know why he even added more power, that vette is insanely powerful out of the box already. Plus he was having some weird issues with error codes popping up, now hes adding more complexity + heat + tune.

ahhhh to be young again. i look at that shit and like NOOOOPPPEEEEEE

The front sway bar went in yesterday and the car's handling is now 10/10. I picked up a set of Conti Extreme Contact Sport 02's recently and I can't wait to get those on in Spring for super ultra max handling.

The ECS 02 is perfect for the kind of weather we're having now. If you have them mounted on separate wheels, slap them on the car and enjoy~! No need to wait until spring.

I'm going to be running only 1 set of wheels on the Miata. I'll ride the factory Bridgestone S001 into spring before they are replaced. I have Michelin PS4S on the GTI and I'm interested to see how the Conti's stack up.

On a very anecdotal standpoint ECS and ECS 02 are much more trackable than PS4S/PSS lol.

I quite like the ECS 02. Even on colder days like 5* mornings it still grips quite well.
