    Man, I feel weird now for running red car shocks at full soft in rear and two clicks from soft in front with comp set to full soft all around. I never ran the Konis much more than halfway either on the street when I had em, with comp all the way turned down to match.

    Comfy street ride fo' lyfe

          Picked up some parts and discussed a bit about adjustable end links for my new suspension setup

          Matt was there at the shop. Super cool guy; he said they just ran out of stickers but he would be more than happy to send me some in the mail when they get a new shipment

            Ive got the M3 tabs welded to my front strut tubes , but have not picked up the adjustable end link hardware yet to make that happen. I wish there was a "kit" that I could buy with all the needed parts?

            Or maybe I havent looked hard enough?

              Matt at Garagistic sells them; they are made to order though and work best in conjunction with a coilover system. You just need to provide the dimensions from center to center on the mount points and he can get you fixed up.

                Good to know . Im Ground Controls with Koni SA's so I think I have the coilovers covered :)


                So I drop the vert on the ground. Let the control arms level out. Pull the sway bar up level measure from one of those centered holes to the hole within the tab on the strut mount welded tab. Sound bueno?




                No real reason to weld up the tabs to the strut mounts without em. IMO

                  Yup

                  Give them a call
                  I've always been happy with their products and services.

                  I think with their end links and GCs, my front suspension would be just about dialed in

                    I know mine will! Especially with my Sparco Strut bar and dialing in my Koni SA's

                                Ugh.

                                Spent an hour trying to get the damn front swaybar off of the Subaru, only to disconnect it, lower the exhaust manifolds, and be stopped by two stripped bolts holding the jacking plate to the subframe and car frame....

                                going to go at the damn thing with a drill tomorrow and cut out those bolts. Rear bar should go much easier, and then the car can go off to the scrapyard.
