Shrug, better handling sure, marginally larger wheels (albeit they aren't runflats), shorter gears, and even a stiffer chassis and lighter weight. It's all good stuff, and I can say had the z06 been available back in 99 I probably would have picked one up. But my point is its still a vette, just like a m3 is still a 3 series, and a SS is still a camaro. It's the same platform, and still very much the same car.

Good job just looking at the power aspect there guy. Lets see...shorter gears, much better handling provided by rolls bars and spring rates and excellent tires. Z06 is just a vette, lol. And type R's are just integras, and STi's are just WRX's, and EVO's are just lancers, and M3's are just 330i's. ill respect a Z06 owner far more than a regular vette owner.

I told you man, everyone has tunnel vision now-a-days, straight-line performance is all anyone cares above ever it seems, kinda sad.

Differences in FE3 and FE4:
30 mm front stabilizer bar
23.6 mm rear stabilizer bar
10 percent stiffer rear transverse leaf spring than on Z51

lots and lots of "fixed up" trash driving around though.
and yes, the blue neon did have a kit on it. looked clean.

Jim lives next door to me, we just got back from doing some overtly fast driving on some mountain roads. It's just funny because most people look at his car, see a stock looking RS with stock looking everything with a WRX badge. Usually thatd be what you'd expect from a ricer (esp since the only real exterior mods are the taillights and wheels)I saw your car last year, haven't seen you around since though, but most of the preludes on campus are tastefully done. More then I can say for the Civics...heh

i just played with a red crx with a little front mount and altezzas. on the little twisty part of patrick henry he tried to lose me and got a little throttle-braking oversteer going on. he didnt want to play and when i waved to him, he just looked at me.
the more i go out the more rice i see. passed about 5 cars just going to kroger. saw 16g-95gsx getting ready to wash his car, too.
