yeah.... that member was/IS ME. so you can SEARCH it up and figure that out... anyways, it's all good man. just thought i'd have it illustrated for people to understand.

anyways i just *FINALLY* sold them today.

i did also run the konis with the GC plates before the hotchkis attempt, but i gave up the gc koni setup for Buddyclub RSD's .... :P loving them

i <3 camber..... thats why. plus, the idea that the rsds are preloaded springs (less or no noise) it makes the drive more tolerable. just the idea that it's an entire setup makes things(life) easy. with the koni gc, there were imperfect things that were inconvinient to me.

yupp..... but the whole setup of my car has changed. they ride 10/16 kg or 550/900 lbs. the whole car responds quicker, but at the sametime i have to drive more carfully or smoother. i also need better tires because street tires are no match for the stiffness of the springs.
