:nono: Ok my last thread was closed because I said a Honda handled better than a DSM. Even though I raved about the brute power of the DSM and made fun of my 88 flywheel hp Civic I have. ??????? Anyway I just wanted to know what exactly makes these cars corner better than they do in there awesome stance now? The real question is do polyurethane bushings and sway bars make any difference? Please somebody with them on a 1g let me know. Thanks. :laser:

Last one was closed cause you're not the brightest crayon in the box.

Bushings help let the suspension do what it was designed to do. You would be even better off going with ball joints and solid mounts, but polyurethane is MUCH better than the stock, worn out rubber.

The rear sway makes a significant improvement in the dynamics of the car, as well as, obviously, reducing lean.

But your first step should be to get decent shocks and then get some springs that compliment them.

Any other questions, search, because I know of at least 6 GREAT 1g susp. threads.

You should be honest about why your last thread was closed, defiant had made it very clear that it was the thread title, "Honda vs. DSM", not because you said Honda handles better than DSM which we all know is true stock for stock. :toobad:

Yes, especially the swaybars but that's not the really question(s).

1. Why are you running 20psi on a stock fuel system?

2. What are you tuning the 2G mas with?

3. Is your profile up to date?
