From what I've been told, they both handle better than stock.

GF210 = "Grip Feeling". 1.0"F, 1.2"R
NF210 = "Natural Feeling". 1.2"F,1.2"R - Ride quality is close to stock, but stiffer.

With both of these though, you'd be reaching the point you need to buy both rear and front camber arms, and rear toe bolts.

So someone reported my craigslist ad and flagged it. BFD... someone is adopting my cats anyway. I gotta drive all the way to Andover on Saturday. Jay, how about I swing by your place? We can have a picnic on your spoiler.

Janik, be brave my son. It's a war zone down there.

As to the question of the Cobb springs, someone on Tech stated that they're not good because of fitment issues. If you're interested, he has his own experience posted in the Suspension section. I can't link you since this site blocks it.

Getting deported eh? Things will be okay.








Damn... I decided to finish up my audio setup. Things add up quickly. I've said screw it to buying a new camera. Also got my Nismo V2 mesh on the way Should look cleaner.

Andover is outside the metro area up north. It'll take me probably 45 minutes to get there.

Cameras are a dime a dozen. You can always get a good one later. Stereo is more important.

I only say that because i'm working outside, working in triple digit temps is dangerous in my line of work so i really need to keep my H2O up.

yeah i read about the cobb fitment issue but im really not concerned about it since theres other members running that kit with no problems. i am also planning on buying a camber kit.

Andover is about 5 min away from me
