Nice. First mod, get rid of the hideous rage 19's and get the OEM 18's.

You know what's surprising? It rides better than my other FN2 with oem 18"'s on it. I'm suspecting this car has after market springs on it as it seems a lot more comfortable even with 19" rages.

Wouldn't aftermarket springs make the ride firmer? Surprising indeed!

Eibach -15mm pro kit rides much much better than stock.

I'm talking about the length of the car, I can't see weight. Also, a common trend I notice on all car threads, is that a lot of the for and against arguments are things that really would only apply on track, which of course is how everyone gets to work.

What TaKeN said. Will check the suspension in a bit.

Pfft. I think it looks quite nice but not a fan or rage's though.
Edit: Rage's are growing on me

Many people say changing springs on the fn2 gives a better ride. I have read that the stock springs are unusual in that they are linear springs, more the sort of thing you normally find on cheap coilovers. A change to a decent progressive spring brings around some considerable improvements.
I know my old car rode better on the mugen sports suspension kit (matched progressive springs and uprated dampers by sachs), despite being lower and less prone to roll.

Thanks for clarifying my point that it is longer
I wasn't disputing your fact Noxia.
I'm just saying you are a girl for not dealing with the extra inches.
