1223, What is everyone's current set-up?
Posted by Irfan, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
Mine is (or will be within a month when the parts get here):

Tokico Illumimas 5-way
Tokico Springs (front linear, rear progressive)
Suspension Techniques Front Sway Bar (19mm)
Suspension Techniques Rear Sway Bar (19mm)
Pilot Front Strut Tower Brace
*Pilot Rear Strut Tower Brace
*Pilot Rear Lower Tie Bar
*RRE Front Lower Tie Bar
16x6 OZ rims (stock sports package)
205/55 RS-A's (stock)


* = ordered part, not recieved yet.

I love the set-up, and cant wait til the other bars come in!
What does eveeryone else run? I really need some better tires and rims- hopefully in a few months! I'm hoping to find some who has tokico illuminas and pro-kits to see if there is a big difference between the pro-kits and Tokico springs.

Neuspeed Upper Front Strut bar
Pilot Upper Front Strut Bar
*RRE Lower Front Tie Bar
*Pilot Lower Rear Tie Bar
17x8 TSW VX1's
225/45zr17 Pirreli rubbers

Just the stock front sway bar, getting the rear control arms/end links priced right now to add the rear sway bar (debating b/t getting RM Sway bars, or saving money and getting GS-T Sway Bars). Also making a custom upper rear bar, gonna require slight cutting of rear deck (which is better than any rear upper bar in existince lol)

how did u fit the awd bars?


www.groundfloormotorsports.com
1232, Move the muffler to fit...
Posted by Skrilla, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
I have the GS-T so the muffler isn't too big but it can't be done by any muffler either. Anyway I wanted thicker in the rear since a carbon fiber hood I've always been planning for(finally it's coming - $388 shipped). My batt. is also relocated and I also have my subs back there. So my handling *should* be neutral leaning toward mild understeer(finally) when I get my Hood(-40lbs and minus a 40lb+ batt). It had some nasty tailing antics for a while. The rear is totally controllable and I can lose it at will (now that I've somewhat had time to learn my car again)and with the hood it should be perfect.

Posted by RyaN95i4, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
so the muffler is the only reason the awd bars dont fit? does the piping get in the way, or just the muffler? i have an aftermarket muffler which is WAY smaller than the stock muffler (like 10" shorter lol) so would i have any other issues fitting the awd rear bar?

Hey, if your replacing the gst bars, how much do you want for the gst bars? email at avengr1995@aol.com if your going to sell them :)


www.groundfloormotorsports.com
1236, I am going to sell them local
Posted by DeanoD, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
The shipping would cost too much to make the deal worth it for you or me. I posted it for $50 for the front and rear bars with the four poly bushings. This is a good deal for the local Arkansas DSMers.

BTW: the stock 2G awd 18mm bar would not fit my car. I have one and when the car lowers down on the tires the bar hits the cross beam between the lower control arms. I am not willing to modify either the bar or the beam.
