Drumsauce's BBP Fit...A Brief History
#21
Wow, u raised your seat?? I wish i could lower mine, it would provide tons of better visibility out the rear view. Then again i am 6'2"

Yeah i just dont wanna spend that kind of money right know considering the long list of mods ive already done. Plus im worried about not having the safety thats stock with standard seats

Suspension update:
On 8 front/ 8 rear, the ride was good, but too bumpy for me for commuting. I decided to put it back to full soft. On is side note, the dampers are not 16, but 32 way adjustable! (not like that really matters, same range, just more increments in between). Strange. I still love the coilovers. I must be getting old, but I can't imagine guys running 6k, 8k, or even 14k (what i've read on this forum) on a GE can have anything remotely comfortable. I know it is subjective, but, man. That would be stiff!

One week after coilovers...
I LOVE MY FIT. It is official. After the seemingly meager mod's ive done, I can honestly say the car has what I feel it was missing. The steering wheel is nice and thick now, shifts are short and crisp, seat is comfy and allows for better visibility. I really love the HD garage lip! Didn't think such a cheap mod would look so good. And the suspension...oh the suspension! Great solid ride now. Just enough lowering to look more aggressive, and the turn in is wonderful. And, it is just ever so slightly stiffer than stock.
Gushing I know, but I finally feel like it is my car. ANNNND I have a new mod that is coming in the mail! WooooT! Progress RSB! That will be the final suspension piece for a while. (maybe)
Has anyone come up with a "midwing" for the GE like they make for the EF? I think that would look sick.
Comments, questions welcome!

Been dialing in my ride...Continue to love my mods so far. The paring of the coilovers and the RSB are wonderful. Playing with damper rates to balance the front and rear.
Considering doing some corner balancing and getting roll center adjusters.
Any thoughts on if this is overdoing it for a daily driver?
