I think I was the last person to ask about dropping muh civic before this the "dropping your car basics" thread was created. I proudly take credit for finally pushing the experts over the edge to make the thread lol.

Re: help: suspension

haha.. actually there was already a FAQ about suspension that has pretty much everything (actual FAQ, aftermarket spring rates/drop rates/part numbers, etc) but nobody wanted to click the sticky that says "All The Suspension Info You Need!! Please Read!!!"

That led Sandro (sdaidoji) to create that thread.. We were getting tired of posting the same responses (i.e. buy tokico blues and tein/eibach springs for a just shy of 1.5" drop.. cant go wrong with that)

here's the FAQ, by the way

So, what happens if you rep someone who repped someone else for creating a thread within a thread? Does that mean double rep, or does the universe implode on itself?

Re: help: suspension

Hey, i was starting to think that it was a moto-continuun. It would feed itself over and over again and would grow indefinitely instead (mirror reflected in another mirror?)
The problem would be that you would become trapped in the loop, living the same moment over and over

Re: help: suspension

I'm just happy the suspension help threads are getting some notice. It happens far too often that we make these help threads and the world is oblivious to them!!!
