hey booo, from your posts, YOU and I wish that we both had tourings.................tell you what, let's convert our cars...........i'm starting with the touring rims and tires, then the rear spoiler. I'm thinking of covering the rear touring spoiler with carbon-fiber stickers instead of painting it black, what do you think?

after that, i'll proceed to work on the suspension, but instead of the touring stuff, i'll just do what you did, the chassis stiffener and the strut brace. brian at BT tech told me that the braces alone on a standard, WITHOUT the springs and swaybars would far exceed the handling of the touring - of course tires being equal.

cheers.
