Oh, something I forgot......
I colour coded the sills and rear bumper - which made the car look SUBSTANTIALLY lower

Do not go below RS Spec. I demonstrated the ability to break Pss9's with the car too low . Enjoy.

Sorry for the delay in responding I am out of town. I installed camber plates on my car that was very low. I think the stock shock mounts had enough cushion in them to mask the geometry problem of lowering the car too much. I am not a mechanic but as soon as the camber plates went on I snapped the upper shaft of the right rear shock right off at the weld. The first one I assumed was a defective part. So I installed a second one and took two runs at VIR and broke the right rear again exactly the same way. My car was about 20mm below RS spec front and rear. After some consultation with my local shop and Steve W. we raised the car to RS spec. I have since run Watkins Glen(2 days) and VIR(3 days) with no furhter problems. Just the bills.
