Wow. That's all I can say about the setup. It drives like a real car now.

Previous suspension was stock shocks and springs up front with stock springs in the back and QA1 single adjustable shocks. With all the chassis stuff I did out back like control arms, brackets and subframes, the front was loose as a goose and felt like it over every bump. The rear would stay planted while the front flexed. I cringed every time I hit a bump as the car would jump all over the place.

Now, with the Strano Springs and SLP Bilstein shocks, it's extremely compliant over any road surfaces and feels balanced like the front and rear are working together instead of against each other. Hit a bump and the car painlessly soaks it up. There are fewer chassis rattles and the car feels more composed than ever. I also had Speed Inc put in a front strut brace that's been sitting in my garage forever.

Still on the stock 16s, but WS6 speedline 17s will be going on shortly, and then a WS6 hood hopefully not too much later.

On to the pics!
