| Well, whatever we end up calling you, you're more than welcome here. To avoid confusion, perhaps we should change your screen name to "Mr Riviera II", or "Mr Riv". Trust me, if you start posting a lot, you're going to want a slightly different handle. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30

| welcome! MORTAL KOMBAT, COMMENCE!just joking 
i dont really have a problem with your name. you probably had it first (on the other boards), but Aaron has a point too.
as long as there is no confusion between our posts in the future.
it's interesting that we have the same basic mods tho, you weren't born in Sept. were you??
anyways welcome to the forum!

| KYB's are a nice improvment over stock. not as tight as i wanted but, we really dont have many other options, especialy for the price. if you really want to corner better go with the STB.
my last run (spring time) was a 14.5 @98 and conditions were not optimal.
i'm hoping i can run a 14.3 or lower once cold weather comes and i get some decent tires. _________________ 1996 with 254k miles, L32 4" FWI -> ported N* -> Ported Gen V w/3.0" Pulley, Stage 3 Phenolic I/C, ZZP FMHE, 1.84 RR, Headers and 3" pipe to mufflers, F-body brakes, and lowered on Eibachs. -RIP AMG C400 White on black.
