note to ivan.. the car hasnt been washed ever since it was departed. =)

anyway, back to the problem. the car understeers at 5 km/h.. its probably the wheel alignment+too stiff shocks+sucky tyres.. maybe understeer isnt the right word, the front setup just feels ackward..

the shocks are standard. only the front have been stiffened.. than i had them un-stiffened, and its still bad. actually its so stiff i dond believe it can ever be un-stiffened.. so i wanted to know how expensive is a new set of shocks.. maybe those from a mk2 celica supra. we have one here on a junkyard. are those a direct fit? does anybody else have a pair of front standard hachi shocks extra?

can somebody write some prices for new kyb, koni, tokico sets? ppros cons..

i havent driven it much, far from pushing it. as said b4 wheel alignment must be done first , because the caster diference between left and right is like 2 cm's.. =)

engine feels great most of the time. its very fast. good torque too. most of the time... sometimes when i open wot it kinda stalls/jerks for a while than jumps like hell. it feels like a fueling problem. thou ther is no such problem revving the engine in neutral up to 7500 or so.. i also dont hear any detonation, it feels like there just isnt enough juice coming in. what can this be?

i have a VW fuel pump, which is located outside of the fuel tank. maybe that could be causing some problems?

ps: also the rear "back-up" lights work all the time. it doesnt matter if the car is in reverse or not. the just go on as i turn the key. i tried connecting those two wires that go on to the transmission manually - no effect! help?

tnx a lot! cu!
