So less than a pound heavier on each corner.

I have the Eibach Pro-kit for about 1" of drop all around. Very comfortable for daily driving and not so low that you can't deal with speedbumps and driveways. Currently have SPC rear LCAs, SPC camber bolts, and whiteline tophats on order so that I can get my alignment 100% dialed in.

Nice!

That’s what I’d look for in terms of drop and I’ve had good experiences with Eibach product. How far off was the alignment before the other parts?

I’m wondering, since I’ve lowered cars an inch or so without having to go to that measure. Granted the camber may have been a bit out of spec but not by much (-1* to -1.25*).

Appreciate the education.

I have been learning a lot myself. There is a lot to suspension geometry that I didn't understand before and it has been cool to figure out how each piece has a subtle effect.

In all honesty, getting the camber right back to factory specs like I'm doing is probably overkill.

For some reason I can't find my alignment report, but both front and rear were out by about 0.75*-1*. I'm just trying to minimize any uneven tire wear because they were not cheap and I want to get the maximum life out of the set.

Had 20% tint installed. No pictures since the car is embarrassingly dirty due to it raining today.

If you're referring to the Valenti Revo's...I believe they came from 86speed but other vendors carry them as well....Google is your friend.

Camber doesn't have that huge of an effect on tire wear. I am at -3 in the front and I was just looking at my tires. They look pretty even across the face. My track tires however, look like I still need to add a bit more negative.

Not today. But over the weekend

Refreshed rear subframe
Pbm solid bushings
Pbm weld In Rear diff bushing
Welded Lexus is300 3.909 diff
Voodoo control arms. Blah blah blah






Also did some street faction heel plates

I put some spacers on recently, 20mm in the front and 25mm in the rear but I haven't bothered taking any pictures because my new PSS have turned brown after about a month of having them. I just washed the car yesterday and couldn't get them black and shiny

It's killing me.

May I know the place please and how much did you pay? Did you install on windshields as well? Thanks.

I ended up going here: https://goo.gl/maps/UWHkQjJrxV42 . W. Little York all the way to Airline has been the fastest route both times in the morning.

They replaced my wife's windshield the week before with OEM glass (Ford Flex) for $140.

I went with 20% Lifetime warrantied film and I paid $150. If you pay cash they won't charge tax. It isn't in the nicest neighborhood, but they're great people and they do an outstanding job.

I've never thought of installing tint on the windshield, so that's a new one on me... Is that a thing? A legal thing?

Try Aero Cosmetics Tire Dressing on amazon. Read the instructions.

Good stuff, doesnt leave that nasty shiny greasy finish either.

Yeah, got some new PS4S on a few months ago and they did the same after about a month, have to dress them regularly to keep them black.

Did you guys get an extended warranty? Awesome car and I am surprised why isn't sold out. A lot of BRZs are still in stock.
