Any other suspension mods besides the v3's?

Looking into rpf1's and v3's for myself with a similar drop and was wondering if you had LCA's or anything else on your car. Thanks!

No, right now just V3s. I'm running 17x9 et45. I'm running 5mm spacers all around now but I ran them without originally. I'm gonna add camber plates for the front soon so I can get more neg camber for autoX.

I did, that's not even as "black" as the bumper has looked! I polish the marks off after every few events. Kinda a pain doe.

Do you feel the car under steers in some of those corners? Just asking because it looks like it's pushing.

It did at first for sure, especially before I got my front sway bar. The car has way more balance under rotation now. I'm also running more negative front camber since any of that video was taken which is helping the car "set" on corner entry.

Cool you have two sets of wheels for different purposes! I think I'll be doing the same the with Gramlights and an RPF1 set. If you don't mind me asking how much did it cost to powdercoat them? And congrats on 50k miles.. I'm barely at 5k lol!
