Default > > > New toys for next season... < < <

Got a few goodies for my car for this first autocross event coming up on January 26th in Bremerton, WA!!!


1. Neuspeed front sway bar bushings. I've been told that they help improve the front end a bit better with more responsive steering, although is a bit more noisier once the grease drys out

2. Ebay rear tie bar...not sure how this one will do but if it isn't of any help it was only $20 anyways

3. Falken Azeni tires - this one is unsure of right now because money is a bit tight, and my Touring tires still need to be burnt out a bit more


Any new toys you guys are getting for your car next season

Not too sure if I want to install it all at once or install it 1 by 1? But all I know is I'm trying really hard to get the tires by this first event h:

Only thing I'll be getting is Bilstein sports shocks revalved to be stiff as a mofo okay maybe not that stiff

I may also install beefier transmission mounts and also transmission mount stiffeners.

My list:
  • polyurethane bushings all around
  • short shifter
  • Comptech rear sway bar/strut bar
  • Comptech Icebox and intake
  • camber plates
  • new set of tires - either Azenis or BFG g-force TA KDs
  • and maybe an Autopower roll cage for Solo I racing

Just ordered Falken Azenis 205/50/15 for my steelies. The GSR blades are going to be traded for some 17's. I paid $275 mounted and balanced from Discount Tire
