This is an important piece of information I will confirm. If I can achieve -3 on the front with the konis struts I might just go your the full SCC setup (struts, springs, sways, rear control arms) since it has probably been tested and should keep the car balanced. My concern with coilovers is that there are so many adjustments and brands that I wouldn't know where to start. |

I wouldn't recommend the SSC kit unless you have specific aspirations for running in SSC. |

Regarding the tire wear, MORE camber! I'm running -2.5* and it's not enough and my tires are not wearing much better. I'm corner balancing my car and bumping it to -3.5* and going to monitor tire temps and wear on my next set of tires.

Sean, can you recommend a place in San Diego to do a suspension install and alignment for these cars? Priority now is to get more camber front and back. For the front I need camber plates and coilovers or camber bolts and koni yellows if they allow up to -2.5 just with bolts. I am maxed out on the stock struts at -1.5. Thanks |
