Re: another drift 340
Living in the country side my cars have to be capable of shifting on rough roads. The 340 with 3" lowering springs and the uprated shorter dampers handled jumps very well. There are a few good humps localy where you could get all 4 wheels of teh ground and it would always land very nicely.Attack2001 wrote:Yano, tearing through the country side, round the corner with the tree's and old cottage on the inside, out into the open, SH*T!

Re: another drift 340
these are the later style VDO gauges, i believe as yours is a mk3 you more than likely have the same style
