hehe excellent Ian. Your sedan should handle like it was on rails ,,,,and sound good too. Moditus has grabbed you again.

Oh, and that Swivel-lips is bad company, he did the same thing with me and astronomy equipment.

Super nice Ian. did you get the gtspec stuff form the vendors? Let me know how it goes. I'm thinking of picking up the package deal from the vendor.

You also got FI? drool city. Aside from the sway bars I was looking at the other two items you picked up

Have fun and let us know how it turns out !

Not one to do things by halves, are you Mr. B? Nice selection of suspender bits there.

Oh, and I'll gladly take the credit/blame, I'm more than happy to spend your money!

Yeah, ordered from Rick@Riverside.
They always treat me right.
I'll have to make a run to NF. NY when they come in,
to pick up & save a little on duty.

Here's the GT-Spec application guide c/w list prices.
IDK what my price was for the individual STB but list is only $215;
I negotiated a pkg deal on all four pieces from Tony@Riverside. (see the vendor section of the classifieds)

Interesting on the sways...only 2 positions on the rear and non-adjustable front. I guess they figure they've nailed the stiffness and people don't need a choice? I say that only semi-facetiously, most people probably pick 'medium' and leave it there.

On the 2nd Gen there's no room for a multi position front.
The end link comes off in a completely different position than the 1st gen.

It's because of non-adjustability that I went with the Stillen over the Hotchkis.
Stillen is 29% stiffer front
Hotchkis is 230% stiffer front
