Thx. The stroke stays the same with the new top hats.

What happened to the spoiler?

http://www.topspeedauto.com/index.ph...rch&search=frs

also, how did you like the top speed rear control arms that were on the car at one point?

edit: i guess theyre just throwing your car all over their website. i assumed you had the control arms.

I do not have the control arms from Top Speed. I have the Cusco ones on there with pillowball mount. They're more for track use. The ones from top speed are hardened rubber (not poly-urethane) which is good for street/ spirited driving without being too harsh. I did take a look at their suspension components and the quality is there.

The spoiler worked well for the track. The car felt more planted compared to last time but I also have the ohlins set up now with more negative camber so that helped as well.
