Let me check to see what size these springs are and I'll get back to you. Shoot me a PM on the price if you dont mind, thanks!

Here are what the tires look like!

All cleaned up now; noticed a bit more rubber marks on the car after lowering:

That just tells us you had a really good time out there! Looks like you maxed them out. Next track event? I really gotta get my ass moving and transition to FL. Midwest sucks, haven't seen my car in months.

Next event is March 22-23 at Sebring, first event following the 12 hour race!

You in the midwest? Chin Motorsports just expanded to the central US; check out their calendar.

I've done Chin Motorsports. They do a really good set up. They didn't do so well in Chicago initially which is a shame. well priced, well organized. TrackDaze is another one that i felt did a pretty good job.

Yeah I'd like to make it up to a Road America event sometime, but that is a 20 hour drive, ugh...

It's about 2-3hrs for me but i've never tracked there. Been there a handful of times. Every time i go i see too many totaled vehicles. From what i can tell it's really hard on brakes too.

Great Thread!!! I like your driving style btw very clean. I have a very similar mod list as I am also planning on going F/I after the warranty is up.

Just out of curiosity do you have the chirp/cricket noise after tracking your car?

Thanks!

Yeah, sure do. I have had the first revision fuel pump installed by Subaru and it still does it, but it comes and goes.

Here's how the car sits after the corner balance and alignment. We brought the front down a bit more to get a 50% cross weight.

The edge of the base plate for the "main hoop" bar that mounts right behind the seat will contact the plastic part of the seat itself if you move the seat all the way back. I had the edge trimmed on the driver's side and it worked perfectly.



Other than that little issue, which is easily remedied, definitely worth it.

Would it be possible to see more picture of the bar please ?
