So with an AP2 you don't think I need the rear toe arms?
Just going by what I've heard the mod isn't worth the cost. Honda fixed, or at least greatly reduced the dynamic toe change (bump steer), of the AP2's rear suspension.

The reason I ask is because I would like to just get everything done at one time, and purchase parts before it warms up. Pardon my ignorance with some of these. Thanks!
I do at Summit and I don't at VIR. It takes about 5 mins to remove/replace one of the end links on the sway bar and you can do it without jacking up the car.

I will be racing that weekend and Mike is going. Mike is going to do comp school that Friday. I'm going to assist him.

If anyone is on the fence, come on down. The track is awesome, the Honda Challenge guys are great, and you'll have a lot of fun. The weather can be rainy/variable so plan accordingly.

Hello mid-atlantic region!

I've been driving a beater corolla with over 200k miles and then 92 civic for my commuter cars. I decided I'm tired of driving shit cars and spend way too much time in the car to not enjoy what I'm driving. So I picked up a 2013 wrx from Annapolis Subaru for a great deal on Friday. The car was then dropped off for a clear bra install with 70 miles on the odometer. Here it is resting at home.



Now I need to vacate a garage spot from my friends built LS rx7. My rx7 will be staying put though.

My rx7 will remain the track and nice weather car as it does everything performance oriented better than the wrx. The wrx will be great for bad weather situations though.

Nice, Jason. It definitely sucks having a nice car in the garage and driving a POS everyday. Should be easier to get up to go to work now .

Made some more progress on the cage this weekend. Everything is coming together really nicely, but it is time consuming.
