Yes, you can all say hello to my parents.

Hey Shim, got a Q for you...

ZSP springs or H&R Sport springs with stock non-zsp shocks?

What are your thought?

Eventually will be running on 18x8.5s...

H&R, that has a more aggressive setup doesn't it?

ZSP=0.6" drop and I think the H&R Sport is about 1.6" ... too aggressive for stock shocks?

ZSP drop is weak. Drop it like it's hot. You could always opt to replace the shocks first if you're concerned...or install them both at the same time.

Sup guys! Sorry it took me a while to make it here to the DC Chat Thread. Been getting my ass kicked at work down here in Texas. I'll be there on August 20th @ 7:20AM . That's a crazy time btw. That's when I'm usually rolling into bed. Anyways, I'll make sure I don't stay out too late that Saturday.

Can't wait til them LUX rings comes in!!! Currently gGot a few mods in hand while waiting though. Long told me my OEM spoiler will be in tomorrow and the ACS rep rear roof spoiler from Sean (LUX.SH) will be in hand in a week or two as well. Donny- I see you also will order one ; great choice. And the price really can't be beat!

On another note, let's try to do some more minimeets/get togethers/drinking since it's summer now. We should choose a central location for HH or what not.

I'm with you on that

DC Metro e90posters, please share ideas/events/local happenings etc in this thread As thd13 said, summer is upon us.


Looking forward to that ACS roof spoiler, awesome price, couldn't pass on it eventhough my painfully stock car doesn't really need it at this time And we are all waiting anxiously for our LUX kits...

Sorry about the timeslot for the RIU event...just my experience that it is more enjoyable earlier in the day as most people tend to prefer the later slots esp on a sunday morning, as you can attest!

[bavarian19]

Well, on a side note...

No more kids, and Im all checked out for the summer... May the Summer of AJ begin :rocks:

[KL2DC]

AJ, this is your first summer with your e90, right? Road trip, road trip!

[KL2DC]
