off season
just wanted to toss up a thread seeing what projects you guys are working on this "off season?"

as much as i want to prep for a street tire class, i feel running h-stock will help me as a driver. so i'm going to run HS this upcoming season.

i need to refresh the suspension on my svt, so per stock rules i was thinking about running koni yellows matched with the svt springs.

how bout ya'll??

My biggest off season work should be in updating my build thread...

My goals to get done before next season:
-Tear down suspension and regrease all the poly bushings
-Order and install a limited slip, I swear it will eventually happen
-New clutch and flywheel install, might as well if dropping the transmission

Some of my plans are H&R coilovers, camber plates, lower front and rear stress bars, 15x7 wheels with good rubber, and battery relocation.

We're toying with the idea of going to FSP with the ST ZX2...tough decision with the looming ST re-org.

Have you ran R-comps on the ZX2? I'd be curious what it would do...
