Still have more adjustments to make, but it's nice to have a car that's not a squeeling pig in the corners!

That's a *really* nice picture.

What kind of equipment do you use to take photos?

I use a Canon 5D with a 70-200 F2.8L IS Lens, that was taken handheld and standing far away but zoomed all the way out in order to blur the foreground and backround. Thanks for the compliments!

As far as ride quality, I still have some adjustments to make, once I've exerimented enough, I'll comment more on that topic.

I'm guessing I have mine set too stiff in the back (the back end seems to break loose and too soft in the front, also I might have the front of the car simply too low as It's still scraping once in a while

What settings are you using right now?

Yeah, those are some nice pics. Anyway, I'm looking for some new suspension, debating on whether to go coilovers or shocks/springs and which ones to go with, so update us when you're completely done. I want to know how comfortable it is compared to stock.

The 95-96 models did a change on the front, so it's stock, however you could easily sand/paint yours as others have done...I'm about ready for the 97+ front bumper!

All I can say is CLEEEAN... I think that this is only the second time I've seen good quality hi-res photos of the SC on this forum.. SLR cameras ftw!
