he WANTS to be fast and furious

and who doesnt want beefier arms??

he does raise a good tech question tho. what's stronger, aluminum or steel.

a rear lower control arm (like the srr unit) made out of aluminum is lighter than the steel piece, but is it stronger? i guess that factors in construction too huh. . . ..

anyone want to elaborate?

steel wont snap, it will bend
