A052's, Hotchkis sway bars and my compressor kit for the air cups have arrived. Car is in the shop currently for an alignment and SPL front arm install.

Picked up a Recaro Pro Ricer RMS, A052's mounted on the TE's and fitment is tight.

After driving around with the Moton's I can give a quick review about how they drive on the street and I must say they are incredible. Even with the 16K spring rates they are miles more comfortable than the KW Clubsports and handle the small cracks on the road beautifully. Took some on/off ramps fairly aggressively and they have blown my mind with their performance. Moton has a new lifelong customer.

These stupid air cups are giving me so much headache.

What made you decide to get the SPL front lower control arms?

The air cups make the width of the coilovers similar to the stock shocks so it introduces clearance issues on the inside if you adjust camber with a camber bolt. I had to move the eccentric lockout on my Motons to full positive and max out the camber plate up top to compensate for the loss of camber but it still wasn't enough which is where the SPL arm comes in. The issue is I have extended the track width a bit too far to meet the camber numbers I want.

I have been following your build and I didn't even notice you installed air cups! I recently got a set of the same wheels (we spoke on FB recently) and I will have them mounted up and aligned in the next few weeks when I get some time. I am considering the SPL front control arms to narrow the front track if I feel like the +36 pokes a bit too much for my taste.

Car is finally ready to hit the track. Only had an hour of track time and was on eyeball alignment after sorting out all the fitment issues.

It is now properly aligned with some decent specs so curious to see how the car responds to the new upgrades.

-3.8 degrees of camber in the front, 0 toe, 6.7 degrees of caster
-2.8 degrees of camber in the rear, 0 toe

I did like 15 laps to shake down the suspension and that was about it. TE's will stay, CE's will most likely go sometime in the future.

PCI seat base and sliders are taking forever for the RMS so I had to put the RSG in the driver's side for now. So lit.

Your car looks so good bro! I'll make sure to post up mine with the TE37 OGs mounted up soon.


Did you get the air cups so you can lift the nose up for curbs, driveways, etc? Or to hard park it?


How much weight does the airlift system add?
