civic weight distrobution and effects of handling w/ audio equip.

You could get serious and pull everything you don't need, sound proofing, passenger seats, interior, spoilers, driving lights, sterio, etc. What you have to keep, try to locate to the best position, such as the afore mentioned battery. Get a battery relocation kit, [b]bolt[b/] the battery down and wire it properly.

Or pretend that you are serious and get walked on by someone like CivicSiRacer...

about corner weighting; this is done by raising and lowering the corners of your car, correct? raising a corner reduces the weight in that corner and vice versa. so you need coilovers to do this? are the corners very off from one another? like usually not noticable? it would be wierd to have a balenced car with different heights on all the corners.

where is all the sound deadining material?

Of course, that removes valuable weight from your drive axle...

Well sort of. If you have a stock car for stock class you cannot have coilovers so the next best thing is to use weights (which will slow down the car at the expense of better handling). With coilovers yes you move the coilovers up and down to get even weight left and right.

My car is sitting to the nearest millimeter. Did a skid pad and I was faster going clockwise than going counter-clockwise, which means one side is off a bit (it wasn't a whole lot like clockwise was 7.5 seconds and counter-clockwise was 7.8 seconds).

Sound deadening material is under the carpets, lines the trunk area it's a black tar looking substance.
