PostSubject: RobiSpec Basic+   RobiSpec Basic+ EmptySun Feb 24, 2008 7:03 am

Robert Fuller (RobiSpec) was in So. Fla over the weekend and I had him install the GTWorx springs (thanks again Matt) on the MR struts and do his Basic Setup plus install the Whiteline rollcenter kit.

What a difference! The handling is noticably better, less steering input to initiate a turn, it takes a set quicker and rotates now vice the feeling of dragging it's ass around a turn. The seat of the pants feel is that the back is alive and Robi explaind that the car will get sidways now if you want. He cautioned that if the car does start to spin, DO NOT counter steer as this will agravate it. He said just center the wheel and mat the pedal, the fronts will correct the spin and the car just goes where it's pointed.

At midnight I'm out tear assing around on a cloverleaf on the Fla turnpike laughing my head off, the difference is night and day.

Go to http://www.robispec.com/ and watch the 2 clips in the intro, you'll get an idea of what I'm talking about. IMO, it was money WELL spent!

That sounds great man ... I'm really glad you are happy with the springs and I can't wait to have my own set.

BTW, I sent this link to Andrew at GTWorx and he liked your review. geek

I really am! They are stiffer than stock but the ride quality has improved no more jiggle just driving around.

Awesome! Glad to hear you like our springs. Definitely sounds like Robi set them up right, so that's good to hear too.

It really feels good reading reviews like that....thanks.

I'm embaressed by how dirty my car is. I'm starting a new job in 2 weeks and I've been busy finding a place to live and getting our "stuff" ready to move. I'll try soon. In truth, it's hard to see the drop.

Thanx Rob. Let me get up there and settled in and I'll see what happens.

I think you will be pleasently surprised Joey especially if you get Robi to set up your suspension and align the car the next time he's in the area.

Only if you scare yourself if you push hard enough to get the car to rotate (see RobiSpec intro vid). Once you know what that feels like you'll only need the tissues. Razz
