<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (2kShark @ May 14 2006, 04:01 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>The other night a few of my friends called me over when they saw my car driving through the parking lot and I had a good 20 people standing around my car ADMIRING it. "You make we want one of the older Tiburons," they say.</div>

You're not alone. I get that every Saturday night. People used to flame me for having a Tiburon, Until I proved that I can take corners in it..haha. By the way, is it true that The Tiburon's Suspension was helped out by Porche or is that just a Rumor. I remember reading this while I was gather info. at one time. The onlyy performance I've done to the engine was the CAI and Muffler...do you guys think that my ATX Beta could kill a Stock ATX Delta? or a stock ATX V6? ..I've never raced another Tiburon, so I don't know.

Yeah, my friend tells me that The RD2 Tiburons were meant to take the corners from factory, but you can make them really take corners when you upgrade your suspension. I wish The RD series of the Tiburon came stock with the H&R cup kit. I couldn't ask for better! German Suspension pwnts.
