biggest bang !

Post by grittracing »

Well this was going to be a post about what would be the biggest bang for my buck do to my latest fortune due to my latest endeavor ( I quit smoking ) $5.00 a day. Friday will be 5 weeks $175 and if i make it 8 weeks i will have $280 and I was going to celebrate and get some bling for the spider. and my question would have been what is my biggest bang for the buck; "sway bar or other? but it seems I may be buying a new alternator. testing pending ! so I guess this gives me a reason to keep it up for 2 more months :D

Tony, my recomendation if you have not done it yet is the 1" front bar and a set of Koni's all the way round. Perhaps after market springs as well. Guarantee you'll love the new handling.
Congrats on quitting the darts... well done, not an easy thing to do.

Good Job on quitting.

I tried to quit several times. When my daughter said "Dad, please quit. I want you to walk me down the isle some day."

That was it. I have not had one in 8 months..........
