oh man it sounds like a subaru is supposed to sound. I think I prefer that over the Borla, design looks more well thought out, too.

Here you guys go..... Rears will be lowered more, probably slammed and possibly a couple more threads in the front. Measured all speed bumps and took pics of all so i know how low i can go more!!!!! Def sooooo much better handling. Taken 40-45 around corners onto freeway and other streets = )

Looking good!!! Remember to give them some time to loosen up before taking to many speed bumps. I doubt it would hurt the strut but your spine will be much happier

I've never had any issues with Schroth on any of the local tracks here and I have been using various sets for over 10 years. The key is the ASM technology Schroth uses. They are one of the only DOT legal harnesses out there because of the ASM they have integrated into them. One of few options I will consider for a street car/weekend track car. If its a fully dedicated race car then there are better options. Whats equally important is the harness angle behind your shoulders. Depending how you guys hooked em up this could potentially be a death trap even in a low speed collision. The harness must maintain 90' from your shoulders otherwise the harness will crush your spine. So I hope at the vary least the guy with the Schroths are running a harness bar.

The main thing that attracted me to it was the lack of a harness bar. I have a CG lock but when you pull the drivers side seat belt all the way out it does not have the child seat lock to hold you in place. Most older cars used the same seat belt for both front seats to save money on designing 2 different ones. The seats are great for holding you in place but sometimes I wish I had a little more stability. If there is a risk of the safety equipment causing me to submarine in an accident than it is out of the question and I will stick with my stock seat belt. I guess in grown man terms I need to either commit to it and get the Agency Power harness bar or just deal with the stock equipment and have the tested safety it provides.
