I slammed my 99

Once again, thanks to Stephen Pivonka for lending me some webspace to share my pix.
The 99 is my rally project, but right now is serving as my cheap runabout while SAABOTR gets everything done. Currently waiting on the magnet installation for the SDS, so I got to devote some time to the 99. Before is with stock 900 Turbo suspension, vented rotors up front, 900 rear axle.
After is with the same setup, but with Jamex springs up front (off the SPG) and new used front Konis. Ran out of time and energy on the weekend to do the rear, so it's still stock. Next will be to get the rear springs on and stock SPG rear sway bar. No bar up front.
"Fun to drive" is a good description. The 205/50/15 A520s on the Ronal 'minilites' are a bit low profile, so the wheel gap is deceptive - the car is actually much much lower in the front. Consequently, it just gets sucked into corners. And honestly, I don't notice much body roll from lack of a front bar, but perhaps the whole car's relative stiffness compared to my SPG is a factor.
