I miss my civic some days. Well I think I just miss being boosted to be honest. The rush and adrenaline is insane. How did you like your 12 si

STI as daily driver is kinda painful.. especially the 2015 model, ride was so harsh but it definitely has a lot of grip in snow when u got the snow tires on.. so i guess i will just have to bear with the harsh ride

my z is already in storage.. won't be able to drive the Z until April 2016... i will miss her. We have a long winter here. so i am going to be with my STI for the next 5 months or so.

Yeah mine hasn't gone away for the winter just yet I normally wait for the first call of snow and then it's gone for winter... I probably got another 2-4 weeks before that happens then I'll be in daily full time. I mean I already never drive it my Zedd now because no point when I work at a hospital parking is terrible and I work long hours so I'm in the daily a lot as it is. I've put 2200 on since I got back in June

I almost bought a 15 STI before the Zedd. It was between that a evo final edition and the 370z

Yeah that's what it is. But sometimes I don't even drive it on the weekends if it's raining. Car has seen rain one weekend in its whole life which was for H20i in OC MD that was it. I'm super picky about driving that car

Hmm. I could be mistaken about it, but I'm pretty sure the traction link isn't positioned on the knuckle to change toe directly. Keep us updated as I am interested.

You are correct.. the rear mid link will get me more ability for adjustment.

however the traction link can give me some adjustment as well..

I just asked the sales of SPL

the answer is, if I want the most adjustment, get both
