My car handles well

I didnt know i could get this much handling improvement by spending about $400 on suspension mods.

I love the way my car handles. Very balanced and predictable. Just had to share it out of exitement.

future mods: coupe driver's seat and the OEM brembo kit with stainless steel brake lines.

Hotckis = $140 Brand new in the box with bushings
Spring and shock install = $60
Front sway install = 40

I don't know if they are any rougher than the stock shocks but i know they can handle stiffer spring rates that was the reason I did it with Tein-S, instead of the stock sport shocks.

i don't have as much suspension work as klubb, but i have the sport shocks w/ Z springs and stillen sways. today i pushed my sedan hard through a freeway on ramp, going from 20-60mph on the turn and had a blast. i slipped the tires a bit but the handling is firm
