Installed STR.T/GT500 mounts/H&R Race
 
Started out with just the H&R Race springs and was going to add Strange shocks but got a good deal on new Koni STR.Ts. Full setup includes STR.Ts, GT500 mounts, H&R Race Springs and BMR Panhard. Handles pretty good, cant really comment much on that as the stock 235 tires wont let me attempt to throw it around they just break loose. LOVE the ride quality and the stance. Thinking of 18x10/18x11 CCW Classics.. Couple pics from today.

Sweet! Looks awesome.

About how much that setup cost you?

80 for strut mounts
350 shocks/struts
150 springs
120 panhard bar

A lowering does wonders for these cars in the look dept.

BV600 09-23-2013 07:46 PM

Definetly Does, now I just need wheels and my hood vents back already.

Looks sweet, are you planning to do control arms since its lowered?

BV600 09-24-2013 09:22 AM

Yep sooner or later

Needs to be sooner. And relocation brackets. Go BMR from Jayman.

I've got a pair of BMR relocation brackets in the garage if you're interested.

Recommend lca and relocation bracket def recommend put em on my car. Made world of difference

Anyone have an idea of what to check? See below

Under nose dive braking and some bumps I get some slight noise, can feel it more than here it. I torqued everything to spec, unless the Nut on the actual struts isn't all the way tight. Used a 200 ft lb electric tq wrench and went back and checked the tq after.

You will get some noise here and there with aftermarket stuff. You did keep the ISO's on the springs right? Mine doesn't make much noise in the front but will if I hit it just right. Mostly, my noise comes from the rear sway I think. I need to check it.

Yep kept iso. My 2012 with bmr springs, steeda pro actions, and panhard made no noise.
