good plan lol. i already asked my parents if i could sell it a while ago and save some money and get a GSR, but they said no. then i asked them if they would allow me to have a GSR and they said yes, so i then asked "well if you'll let me have that car, then why cant i at least just have the engine from a GSR in my car?" lol they got mad and told me to go to my room.

to put the springs/shocks in you have to pull your suspension apart. get a freakin alignment.

it was more of a "just get the fuck out of my face because i dont wannt talk about it, end of discussion" sort of things. going to my room isnt really being grounded, i got alot of cool shit in here to keep me busy for a while

i'll get an alignment after i get new rims and tires on, a camber kit. and then i'll get it aligned. i dont think there's any point in getting in alignment before i put a camber kit on?? but thanks for all the suggestions

Economy cars aren't meant to go 100mph+. What can you do? Get a new car. I was racing a RSX one time...My Z was calm as can be at 135mph....the RSX driver had both hands on the wheel trying to control the car while it was shaking. I remember my Civic going into convulsions @ 115mph. LOL.
