Man... I went and spend over 7 grand for the real thing~!!!!!

Since i just wanted to look and sound cool... i should've waited for that fake intercooler and fake blowoff to come out and saved $6900~!!!! hehehehe

What will they think of next? Shorter springs on the back so the car will look like its accelerating fast all the time... or a fake exhaust sound????

Funny you should mention lowering springs in the back to make the car look faster.

In my dads days, they used to lower the rear of the car just like you mentioned. Look at 50's cars (sleds).

Then in the 60's they started jacking up the rear end of cars, and in the early 70's is was crazing jaking up going on.

Of course, the stupid thing is all the weight was shifted horribly foward, so they couldn't get any traction at all, let alone steer the thing.

different poser trends, different years.
