Would be nice if you could give some feedback on how good the shockworks stuff is once you drive with it, might convince me to get some!

Got some achilles atr's (i think, can') fitted to my volks today, 175/65 on 14x7.5, and 185/60 on 14x8's. was gonna fit them today too but can't find my tapered wheels nuts, then it started raining so I gave up, will have a look around in the morning

What handles better?

[dove grey 64]

hhhhhhmmmmmmmm......... well its hard to compare, old 86 is alot more raw, new 86 feels like a new car, new 86's being a newer car are alot more driver friendly, you have to have good skill with an old 86 to get the most out of it, new 86 is alot more user friendly but we had some mad downhill runs and they are really really impressive, had a 300kw evo X camera chase car that wasnt keeping up through corners.
main thing is they nailed the fun factor and also its the same car you can drive flat out due to its power balance.
like any 86 you could ask for more power but its not a necessity
new 86 gives alot of warning before anything really lets loose.

Looking forward to seeing the reviews...

Though i guess you are right, you are comparing apples vs oranges and asking people which one is better.
