Ha! True!
Spork, post up when you've driven it some. Would like to hear your impressions.

I only drove it about a mile yesterday and hadn't really driven the car much before so hard to give any real results.

I live in Wildomar (just north of Temecula) so the kid was going to go home via Ortega Highway last night (he lives in Carlsbad) but it was late, wet and dark so he may not have gone that way.

I'll get his opinion later in the week when he has had a chance to drive it a bit more.

He and his girlfriend (little mid 20's hottie! ) did go for a little drive yesterday right after I put it on and he was pretty happy with it.

We're thinking struts/shocks next.

You can't just go stiffer shocks without replacing springs?

When doing the rear (torsion, not sway ) bar I saw it has some pretty flimsy coil springs back there. I guess some stiffer ones would help it out.

We don't really want to lower the car and make it a pain to drive over speed bumps and driveways and such.

I'll probably give Cali Yaris a call for advise before we do any more to it.

He may have a different girl by then though. He seems to go through them quickly but always manages to bag the hotties. No complaints here!

Crap, now I better not tell him about this site!
