Haha you're lucky, I haven't been able to get a transit pass since 2008 due to they don't believe apprentices are worthy of the upass. So I park at school lol.

Is anyone going to the Beyond Honda meet tonight?
Yeah it doesn't level enough like that. And really? That's ridiculous! You should totally get one. Last I checked, it wasn't about who's worthy, but about having all students encouraged to use the transit. FAIL.

And... what is that? It sounds cool.

Oh I know those are both good. If it helps any, here's a great resource posted by someone here which compares a lot of factors between many of the available springs. https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-...tml#post223264

One thing I can say, is that I notice the Tein's have a really low front compared to the back. I didn't like having the slope of the T1R's, so I know the Tein's would drive me nuts!

Ive been looking at all the springs and they pretty much have a slope towards the front.

Oh yeah, but obviously the simple fact that the front is lower than the back isn't earthshattering. It's the ratio that counts, and the Tein's have a very big difference between them, almost twice that of others. Just making sure you're aware.

Alberta Fits have been quiet for a while now. We're going to have a mini meet in Edmonton in August though.

Oh and it's Jan btw.
