If I recall correctly, both tien and ksport coilovers have different spring rate options available (?).

Search on here to be sure though before you buy them for a TT / VR4, maybe there have been revisions to them since when I looked into them ( a year or so ago ).

It was also the the rubbing against the driveshaft as well. Dirty Dave broke a CFDS from his rear sway bar because everytime he launched his car the bar was squat too much and cut into the shaft.

GTPro sells aftermarket springs to use with the tein coil overs that you can get in different spring rates. AFAIK you have to call them to get a set.

Yeah, so mark gave me a ride in the camaro and with just like 60% throttle I didn't know how to react.

That thing is just a differnt kind of beast and not to mention that even from a roll it lights up the rears without a problem. I was exepcting the power to come on like a turbo car (over the RPM range)...big mistake...lol. As soon as the foot goes down the boost is there and in your fast and pushing your throat down to your ankles.

I can't wait to see what he can pull off with the slicks and a good tune.

Welcome back,
Brakes are pretty simple, I bet a fellow 3si member will have no prob helpin you out. What do you have.....NA or TT?

To change pads all you really have to do is compress the caliper (use a c-clamp), remove one of the caliper bolts, lift up the caliper and slide the old pads out and put the new pads in.
