Hi

I would add removing the engine sound pad and RS suspension bushes all round to the list.

You are 100% correct with your theory. The rain does track back over the screen when the wipers are flipped, I wouldnt flip if the car was a daily and used in the rain, it may drive you mad! As mentioned, remove the intermittent relay and re-adjust the arms first to see if you like it

NO!!! DONT BUY THAT ONE!!

The one you want is 141951253B or 4H0951253A a multi purpose relay 53, about $10

If the car is lowered down to anywhere near ROW the uprights make a huge difference

A couple more mods I have carried out, purely cosmetic.

Turbo spoiler grill straightening
Front truck carpet pocket straightening
Cup holder replace cassette holder

Fwiw; mine is ROW height and I pinned my tie rods: No bumbsteer, and I found my car now more stable at highway speeds.
And when I compare the costs between the mods...huge difference

Best regards,

I would substitute RS for ROW here. ROW height should not present a problem with uprights, I think.

Marco, could you describe _exactly_ what pinning did for the car?

911PERVY

Yes, your both right, I meant lower than ROW (or RS and just above)

Analog Theory

My mods are in my signature but hands down the regear (albeit $$$$) was the most transformational. Combined with the RS clutch/LWF and Rennsport ECU...oh man.

the only thing I could detect immediately after pinning was that the steering wheel felt more "alive" and tracked the road more accurately.
after an hour of driving i could not tell the difference before vs after.

some might not like this mod if they have an aggressive alignment that is prone to "twitchiness or tramlining", since the NVH reducing elastomer is effectively defeated.

I have no regrets.

MY favorite mod = $124 HID headlights.

Hi Mike,

I will give it a try, for example: before the pinning when I experienced a (moderate) gusty crosswind while cruising on the highway at approx 100km/hr, sometimes it felt as if the car would track a different trail-a different equilibrium in geometry sort of speak.

The above described 'feeling' could also be generated when I voilently manouvered the wheel 10 degrees from left to right to left etc. during a straight ahead drive (on a empty highway at approx. 80 km/hr).

And in general; slightly more feedback can be felt, but I can imagine you could easely get used to this 'new' feeling.

(Some extra info: the front bushes on this car were replaced using OEM rubbers 4 years ago, and one tie rod replaced 5 years ago).

Hope this clarifies a bit

Best regards,

Marco
