I am running the front swaybar in the middle setting and the rear in the "firm" setting. The back end will give a little when cornering hard with the setup this way (it's very predictable and suits my driving style). I'm going to try firm on the front, but worry I'll get understeer. Anyway, it's going to be easier to mess around with settings using the race ramps
Ahhh.sounds good.

Hope you find that adjustable one in the future so you can try intermediate settings.

welcome back bruce. the orange stains can be taken of with clay + lube. not sure about the scrape on your wheels. since it appears to have been parked outdoors, could it have been the landscapers (landscrapers? ) they always f- with my car unintentionally(?) at the office. i hate it.

thank you mr. kenchan. The car was parked in my garage while I was gone. I am not sure when the scrape happened, just noticed it today.

But yes, I am going to consider some other options. No need to pay more for less.
The ARK and Invidia is a very good option for you to consider...

The difference of the price of both is not much, and I strongly suggest you the ARK..

It's also weird because the direction of the scrape is not in the direction of wheel rotation but, more perpendicular to the edge.

Anyone know any ways to remove those orange stains? Would getting a full detail do the trick?

WB Mr.Bruce, where did you go in Asia??

will take delivery late tomorrow morning. obviously im not going to sacrifice my early am Z motoring for this car. bought insurance as well so everything is all set. this should all be over by tomorrow lunch time. wheew...

thanks for all the tips and suggestions, mr.alcheng. i thought i through very well and at the end i think this is the best solution for me for now...cheap, reliable, good history, swapable tires/wheels with my other Fit, and practical. thats all i need right now. will save the rest for Z mods.



Mr.kenchan,

Congrats on the purchase!!!

I am glad to hear you are picking up the Fit tomorrow, it meets all your criteria and you'll be happy and worry free!!

And you are very welcome to consider my suggestion , I always love to help people to spend their money...

mr.alcheng- LOL! @ chinese take outs. thanks again. yah, those bits are for the new car.

actually my 370Z runs fujimura which is an axleback. the z's exhaust is aquate imho, other than the backpressure the muffler section has to muffle the sound. take that bit out and some post MAF tubes and the rpm rev freely to redline.
