    Opps....sorry, Guess not the best time to joke around.

    Nothing worse when you cant get a car up and running again...especially when someone else controls the situation.

    Friend had issues with DSS, but he owns an Evo. The shop took all sorts of pictures and measurements for DSS to review and they simply chucked it as not their issue. Friend got his money back and he was not willing to do extensive modifications too it and talk about mis-leading direct bolt on parts from them.


    I would just throw the stockers back on...They seem too handle alot of abuse...but not sure how much abuse it can handle on actual slicks. ET Street isnt much of a problem for a hundred run or so. I got 450 runs out of mine, but with their DR's.

    Anyways...best wishes.

    I may put the stockers back in.
    I am going to take a tone of pictures tonight and post them up.
    I could run the slicks on the stockers if I take it easy on the launches.

    450 Runs your a track whore. LOL

    Used to be TrackWhore 11.38 @ 120... wanted to try our best track, but I never felt confirtable there. Plus that last few times ive been messing around with Nittos. I wheel hopped from the start, all the way down to the 1000' marker !!! Not one run, but 5 back to back runs just hopping away. Id safely assume that I have weakened them, so not willing to take any more runs. Least the stockers can hold up to 1.5 short times. Best I got was a 1.568 short time...good prep, stock clutch at its peak and good DA.

    Anyways, Slicks seem to really grip in any and all conditions, so not sure. Sonic Venum only ran on ET Street and put over 100runs in.

    Dont do Solid ... IRS Squats perfectly.
