Hmmm...still it doesn't mean he wouldn't be able to appreciate the improvement over the scary stock suspension, even if he's not taking the new one to the limit.

Payback kinda sucks huh . Seriously though, get out to Proformance at Pacific so I can lap you already. Out of all the $$$$$ I have put into my WRX (Uhh I mean Schwinn) the $300 I spent for the HPDE was probably the most well spent, wish I did it long ago.

Oh god, now you've done it...I'm going to hear about this for the next 10 years from my personal troll. I'm sure driving classes are really fun and beneficial but the thread is about how to spend some money on basic suspension upgrades.

you should get a nice coilover kit like this one : http://www.hpashop.com/product.sc?pr...categoryId=123

youll notice the most improvement from a good coilover.

Completely agree. Build a solid foundation first before getting serious with coilovers, if on a budget (like most of us).

For me: real tires, M3 front control arms and camber plates are done (thanks HPA) - rear subframe bushings and M3 front ARB to go!
