Default H&R Coilovers installed - after pics inside

H&R street performance C.O. kit. Purcahsed from Performance (no affil./nice folks).

Picked up the car today from install/alignment and luckily was able to sneak off for a drive in the local twisties. Pics not so great/ car is dirty/ etc.

I am extremely happy with the results. Car feels, drives, & handles fantastic. Very solid but not too firm or uncomfortable. Much more neutral at limit, even a litte oversteer when desired (I need to drive it alot more to comment on this though). HUGE leap from original, stock, 104K mile, suspension. Looks awesome as well.

Height from ground to fenders approx. 24.75" rear, 25.2" front, very even side to side. I have access to the local PCA corner scales but mechanic said car is so straight that everything just came together perfectly, no need to bother.

Highly recommend this kit. Looking forward to summer track days with the Victoracers track tires!

Nice Jay! IMO, these cars look soooo much better lowered.

$1,799 for kit.

Approx $1,000 labor incl one tire rod I needed replaced, removal and reinstall of my front strut brace, and a 4 wheel alignment.
