1) Upgraded 3MAX RSB on the car, immediately felt the whole car being upgraded. Rear wheel action has been totally upgraded. On the way out from 3MAX factory can felt the rear has been tighten as my rear wheels jumped over gate rail instead of slorppy lazy boucing around.
2) Was deeply poisoned by RSB, immediately install FSB to see the difference. Unfortunately, because I installed RSB first, when I have not familiar with new upgrades, the car behave differently that almost hit an accident. 2nd day after installation, wifey brought the car, scratched my right side seal whilst taking a right corner. Steering action has been upgraded as she didn't realized I upgraded the car that causes such accident. Good thing is, until today she still didn't know there's extra bars in the engine bay & back seat brace. However, she did asked why the "rack" color so white compare to the car yellowish bodypaint. I said because its hiding in the engine bay, that's why it still white. This is the initial stage of FSB/RSB installed. I'm suffering from trying to handle the car as it will scream on almost ALL the corners I take.
3) Test drove Luke's SE, interestingly found out the "lost" feeling with ONLY FSB installed on his car. Steering action is exactly the same as mine! When acctack corner, braking slight toe out, car start to turn, immediately bite the corner! Every corner I take, I know where exactly the car will get out from the corner. The only difference with FSB+RSB is, with RSB rear wheels tend to skid more often. Figured release rear tyre pressure to balance out rear wheels traction. After that is all good. Able to drive normally and start to enjoy again.
4) Test drove GaGa BLM white evil twin brother with ULAR FSB/RSB. I have gain a 180' point of view with ULAR! ULAR bars provide exact same feeling as the car originally posses. Best of it is, the car overall handling has been upgraded. It doesn't make u suffer from trying to handle the car, instead its very easy to control. I feel the absorber working harder, I feel the spring compress more than usual, I feel the tyre grip being fully utilize! Every corner I take, I take with confident! However, 1 thing I concern which is the lack of crisis feeling. I wouldn't know when is the limit until I hit the limit. When that happens, either I buang to donut spin already! Overall, I think ULAR is a better amateur mod compare to 3MAX, easy handling and has the overall improvement kind of feeling. But if you're an hard ass that seeking ultimate control, 3MAX is the way!
5) Booked appointment with EA, thinking wanted to sleeve my fender to avoid further sagat in future. Went to EA on a beautiful afternoon, ended up ULAR room bar + rear lower bar on the car! Sagat issue... Forgot to fix
Basically the car makes no difference. But then, interestingly the rear sliding issue has been iron out! Rear wheel traction follows exactly as front when doing hard cornering. I did a few run, found the the FSB effect has been emphasized. As long as I don't over turn my steeringwheel, nothing serious. But if I go gymkhana way, iskazulka at my backseat can tell you, its violant! Overall, the car has been upgraded to this stage, I'd say most of its chassis works has been maximized. Some of the driving joy has been compensated. Imagine you hangout with a hot lady, where she does everything you asked for, no challenge & no fun. I have the exact same feeling. Bear in mind, suspension is stock.6) Tested r3ap3rs car, surprisingly it felt exactly the same like the GaGa white evil twins with ULAR FSB/RSB. I didn't do thorough cornering, but felt the overall improvement is great, comfortable and easy to handle. I wouldn't know the car has those bars in existance if I didn't see it. It will felt more like good suspension/spring/tyres instead.
7) Midnight run with Luke in my GaGa. I said I love my GaGa
Luke said, "me too"
