[] if this is a repost then delete it.

[] I'm stealing this one from the mkII vortex world b/c it'll save a lot of time with those noobish "OMG sick stance, what crispynips dopeass mothafickin' suspension are you running???!?!" questions.

[] post 1 pic of your car... JUST ONE with suspension specs front/rear below it.

[] As you alter your suspension, repost it. If this stays alive, it could turn into a decent timeline of our cars.

[] Please keep it "all business" with zero jibbah jabbah.

[] Mods, please trash any and all posted photos containing photo-enhancing black borders. Bottom line is; as sexually beautiful as it may be, it's cheating.
