I'm very tempted to toss in the race motor, trans, fuel system and all... IF I can't find a buyer for it. I want to try and sell the motor and trans to do another subaru swap, most likely an ej20 setup. We'll see if i can be that patient.

On the race bug I'm running 300# up front and 550# in back, but the back is still too soft. I'm going to swap out for a 625#or 650# spring depending on what I can find.

Be sure to post up how the new springs out back feel. I too have been considering moving up to a 625-650 range. Maybe I'll let you spend the development money first ;-)
