What are you planning EZ1? You have to keep me in the loop so I don't get surprised like the last track day.

Apparently you weren't happy with the ROW. What were its shortcomings? What did you replace it with? (I'm considering a set of ROW).
Thanks

EZ1, yeah I do need the practise

lexpro, the ROW is a good street package if you're not looking to lower your car alot. It's also not bad for the occasional track day but if you're more commited or need to have your car low, you're better off with something else.

I found the ROW to be rather harsh. I was also interested in dialing out understeer. I have set the ride height 1/4 - 1/2 inch lower than ROW. (about 3/4 - 1" lower than stock) For this reason I went to an adjustable coil over setup (JIC/Cross) in conjunction with GT3 adjustable sway bars. I find that even on rather firm settings for the bars & coils, the ride is more compliant than the ROE( I have medium stiff springs), not to mention the improved handeling.
