Let me know how that works, the roof rubber on my Civic has shrunk a slight amount and I was told nothing really works so I'm curious.

All I ask is that if the forums do wind up shutting down some day, that I be made mod of AI for six mere hours.

kimbo305 posted:The paint might not be red, but at least the car cover is That actually reminded me of a 348 I was following in the bay area for a while a few years back. Was in the right lane of a larger street, and the 348 was in front of me. On the left side across the street was a high school cheerleading squad doing a car wash fund raiser and I saw the dude double take, zip into the left lane, got into the turn lane, and flipped a u turn.

My favorite Ferrari experience actually involved a red 348 flying up the on ramp to 280 in San Jose just south of where it crosses 101, and I swear to god it was a real life picture perfect recreation of that old Genesis or NES game (it's been years but you know the one) where a red 348 with the targa off came flying up that long sweeping up hander ramp with at least 15* yaw off center, possibly 20*, dude with huge shades and Miami vice hair flawlessly hanging the rear end end out continuing across three lanes to the carpool lane, and some trophy blonde in the seat next to him with her hands in the air. Then hammered it and dissapeared. The second experience was with my E30 heading out of San Jose up Mt Hamilton towards Livermore at midnight one night and halfway up to the top I encountered a black Testarossa going the opposite way at an incredible rate or speed.

kimbo305 posted:Been under the weather and waking up at odd hours. Didn't feel great but wanted to see what changes if any the spaced out rears caused to handling. It's hard to tell -- every time I get in the car, the shifting is easier than I remember, the ride quality is smoother and less squeaky, and the steering is more precise and communicative. So with that "this is such a great car to drive" prejudice that comes with every ride, I feel like the car oversteers less now. The car still tells you very obviously how far you are from the grip limit at the rears, but now that limit seems further away after initial turn-in. So a little less nervous.  http://www.uucmotorwerks.com/catalog/driving-shoes---scuderia.htm

From the reactions to my post I just want to clarify I was not being in any way negative or say not to, I was just putting it in real world perspective for myself if no one else

For the record they do make bolt in LS conversion kits for the 914.
