[QUOTE="mADmAN, post: 1063443581, member: 4286"] for comparison.... my old ex-EF3 converted to EF9 had VERY stiff suspension and also had chassis strengthening done via [B]spot welding[/B]....spot welding was done on entire car including engine bay. only had front 2pt strut and rear 2pt strut... [I]DONT ASK ME WHERE, HOW MUCH BLA BLA BLA. EX OWNER OF THE CAR DID IT.
