I’m endeavouring to refresh the rear suspension system fully and update my 2015 refreshed front setup.
Currently, Struts-
Bilstien HD B6 with H+R red springs. Stock mounts Height-
Near Carrera RS=93TurboS
F120mm
R233
However no direct reference since the factory used different tires but I will check online to see difference. Wheels
18” RH CUP I Bushings-
-Front RS-Firmness control arm
-Rear-all stock and tired. Sway bar-
-Links,Elephant Racing Sperical drops
-Stock bars Rack-
-993 Support bracket
-Stock tie-Rods (2015) Engine/Transmission-
RS Mounts
Planned upgrade;
PSS10 RS struts, w/lowering collars,
FVD upper spherical joint mounts,
Prekom RS spring plates w/RS eccentrics,
Prekom RS rear control arm bushings, Prekom sperical inner and outer tie-rods.
Adjust ride height for a little more tuck but not much.
Questions I have are
1) Did you install RS Style wheel carriers for better geometry/weight reduction in the front? Not really something I want ($/time) to do but am tempted.
2) What tie-Rod ends do you use and more critically if you have solid tie-rods like the prekoms would you do otherwise if given the chance for a do-over?
Im not after a race-car track setup but a super tight street. Hens the RS Frame mounting rubber components except strut towers.
Furthermore, I wouldn’t expect a lot of compliance with the RS Style linear bushing, but for the same money go that route if you have first-hand feedback that the solids Prekoms/Elephant are really aggressive.
I went with something pretty similar to what you're thinking.

Car is still apart for paint, but hopefully I made good choices!
