Alright cool, I ride around on 5 which is the middle setting, and the sway bars are in the middle setting in the rear and 2nd to softest in the front, but I will be changing those soon to be stiffer, I need to see if I can get to the track this summer, but school takes up a lot of time

haha I dont even trust my stock brakes in daily traffic

I was unaware I could get corner balancing here in the area but the name of that shop would be helpful as well.

Basic suspension work also.

That would be nice, but the 305s look sick!

Well I tore apart my front end to fix the rattles and etc, most of it was coming from the endlinks always coming loose, so I bought some new hardware for those.

Finally I put some rubber on top of the coilovers to dampen any vibrations and etc.


Picture of the lower SPL control arm bushing



Bilstein PSS10 Coilover



Rubber Square that will become my new shock mount dampener



Templete for the rubber



One of the rubbers finished



Finished rubber on top the coilover



Both finished rubbers on the coilovers



New Hardware for the SPL Endlinks



Before Hardware change



After Hardware change, the lock washer wasn't used that is pictured here



Fixed Endlink bolted up with new hardware and locktite



Everything starting to go back where they belong
