@Pbrown maybe they will confirm the Supra launch before the spring, in which case you can put all of that money towards the down payment.

LOL! I need to know by June 6th, 2016. I was looking at the videos of the car over the weekend and there is no way in it's current form it will be under 70 k especially if the engine is over 400 horse. Stunning vehicle for sure.

Super-secrat track mods.

Yep - Eibach ProKit. With the springs and the $7 crash Subaru bolts to give you more camber and you'll be set for the track suspension wise! The drop is a bit less than 1"

The front ones just need to be removed from the OEM struts - I don't have a spring compressor.

You can have them if:

• You bring me a bottle of scotch , AND
• You remove the Eibach front springs from the OEM struts and reinstall my OEM springs onto the struts (here's a DIY http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=10842)

If I can find the crash bolts, you can have those as well (not sure if they can be used more than once).

You have excellent taste!

I will also probably do an OFH. There is a place in town that does ceramic coating (RLD) if it isn't too outrageous, I'll probably get it ceramic coated.

Edit: Forgot that I will also be adding the Perrin steering rack bushings.

Outside chance I will do some suspension stuff as well.

Let me know how much it costs.

[jvincent]

Will do. I sent them email today so I should hopefully hear back this week.

Anyone else interested in case there is group pricing?

recommended by Vortech at time of install along with new plugs, 18 months out and I'm already studying the install guide. Need a life.

I have a few things lined up, but I'm spending all my mod money on purchasing a new camera
I need a cheaper hobby.

You're fast enough, Andre. No need to get more mods.

How much of a difference did you notice switching from this setup to your coilovers?

I'd be interested as well. Thanks!

It was a huge difference, but I changed a lot of other suspension things at the same time (steering rack bushings, rear subframe inserts, rear sway bar, wheels/tires, caster/camber plates, rear LCA, front camber from -2.0 to -3.3). I did notice the damping was much better.
