Greg, any input on this... Assuming you're still reading this thread.

I am going to have to agree.. I don't know if the koni's are going to be the way to go. You are going to need as much fluid displacment as possible on the new surface. Also things aren't as stiff on this new surface as on the concrete. It is more finess and less grunt. I know motons are made for the new fg, the guy in ESP has them on his si. With that said I still don't think that the car will be able to keep up with the mini's. Not enough camber, too heavy, no torque down low..I mean the list goes on.
Jay got some wheels 2 sets of brand new hoosiers and maybee koni's for the si PM me if interested :)
PS: If I were going to continue to campain this car I would defintly get the motons. But Chris and I are gonna take on a new project.
