The RAs have adjustable dampers?, if so try making them a bit softer instead of the tires, they might be too stiff, keeping the rear like a pogo stick (enuff to rotate). I would try this first. 37f / 39r hot MXs for track soften the rear dampers about 20% And try slowing the car down in a straight ...

If you are running R compounds, consider at a minimum GranSports (call Carl @ Tracracing.com), the new Cobalt variation of what used to be specVRs, or Hawk Blues. **Note: If you use Blues, be prepared to wash off your wheels quickly to avoid permenant brake dust damage on the wheels. I personally ha...

Most tow hooks I've seen don't require bumper cutting. Anyway, the Denon's bolt to the rear stock tie down & the front required me to drill one extra hole on the inside support. (Note to self: don't dremel a hold in steel while laying down underneath - metal shards suck!)

if it's the bolt I think you are talking about... suspension = life. Don't skimp and take a chance of a rig-job breaking at 100+ If you can't afford the real bolt, change suspensions & go back to stock. I'm sure you could ebay your way out of the 3 corners that work. easy decision in my opinion.
