If the price difference ain't big, I would opt for V2 as the benefit of having the adjustable height may come in handy. Adjustable rebound and compression you don't really need it if you don't track your car or drive like RC

V1- NIL V2- Rebound adjustable V3- Rebound and compression(bump) adjustable Rebound is how soft(slow) or hard(fast) you want the shock return back to the initial stage. Compression(bump) is how fast or slow you want to compress the shock. There is a delicate balance between the two adjustments. My set up now is a bit soft for rebound from recommended setting and recommended setting for compression. Feel a bit bouncy on highway and need a bit more stable on cornering. I will have both settings adjusted a bit harder soon. The rebound is easy to adjust (underneath the hood and from the rear speakers, can self adjust anytime) while the compression probably needs to jack up the car (can't DIY).

Still think V3 is the best value for the money.

That easy? I thought it's pretty complicated with the airbag.
I concur.

Yup, so go for the V1 or the V3. Only 3k difference for V2 and V3 so might as well do the best.
Are these prices from Z shop?

Fitting a steering wheel only need to loose the airbag, detach some wires, loose a nut that holds the steering wheel and reattach some wires, not a complicated job, something you and your bat cave can handle I am sure

The airbag is just a piece of thing that's wrapped, it's not that complicated.

Speaking of which it's time for RC to change wheels with all the F14s on the street now.

Ok the sequence goes like this: mlai swaps new wheels and ditches the MS8; RC takes mlai's MS8 and ditches the F14; RR takes RC's F14 and ditches his stock.

sounds good. It all starts with the big tycoons, just like anything in HK nowadays.

I saw a forgestar f14 today! .. I think its true, leaking down to everyone .. 20's are big!
btw I like the not-blue not-yellow very middle color of the xenos/halos .. it is very distinctive and f10! I say this because i am trying to match some leds for fogs to this color .. it is very hard. but would be nice to achieve for the OEM look (rather than aftermarket / cheap led look) |
