(* snip *) Bob - Thank you for your kind words. As for the recent spam attack that has hit the list, it was noticed late last week and I have not had the chance to speak with the list admin, Andy Ellifson, as to what can be done about it. But please be assured that we will work to get this resolved soon. As to wanting to rid the body roll from your CRX, if you're running with stock shocks and springs, start with a stiffer set of springs. Most of the "race" springs will give the car a .5 to 1 inch drop from stock. I've always been partial to the Eibach Sport Springs myself. As for shocks, Tokico, KYB, Bilstein and Koni's are my recommendations (not in that order...). I would also suggest a tire upgrade. If you're running on the stock Si rims, a 195/60-40 tire will give you some added performance and not give up much (if any) comfort. The stock anti-sway bars on the Si work very well but upgrading them to a larger bar will also help. I'm still running the stock bars. Shock tower braces (including a rear lower brace) will help stiffen the chassis. I'm still running just the front top shock tower brace. Anyway... start with the springs and shocks. If you've already done that, then address the wheel and tires. And so on and so on... If you have a pic of Jiggy-II, send it to me. :^) Take care. Robert K.
