THAT part. I've got the Nitto version coming this week.


that's the one i've been talking about.

the other two parts you have listed fit no problem as long as you're ok with the NVH. (C-One lists those for the NCP91).

i had Energy Suspension polyurethane mounts on my xrs and it was perfectly driveable....just transferred more engine vibration thru to the steering wheel and chassis and stuff....but in no way was in uncomfortable or remotely undriveable.

sure stopped the wheel hop when launching...

Tires came in today. If the stars align and my torque damper gets here tomorrow I MIGHT run tomorrow, but if not it'll be Tuesday. I want that 100 MPH trap!

Well in one night of drag racing I spend about 2 minutes @ WOT. Saying that is more harsh than laps around a track is kind of proposterous, don't you think? I'm not baiting, I'm just looking at it realistically.

clutch drops = transmission abuse...

give and take, both put more than the usual wear and tear on the car...

ANYWAYS,

I just got replacement Falken 912's. They're AWESOME... for 5,000 miles. Then they're garbage. Still can't complain considering the price. New wheels and tires next year probably. Mission now is to button this car up and get me a Subie for the winter. I REALLY like that 2002ish Legacy Limited! I miss leather and wood grain more than I'd like to admit.
