BRZ suspension install pics

Here are a few teaser pics of a very nice BRZ we just worked on. Can't wait to get feedback on how it handles after the alignment.

Those lower control arms are adjustable right? Did you guys set them at the factory setting?

Suspension N00B right here.

Did you just get the rear braces or did you get the front braces too.

I set them to have just a bit of negative camber and made sure they were even until Pete can get the alignment done.

All of the blue parts are Cusco.

Just drove back from Speedware in Redmond. The car spent all day on the rack getting weighed, balanced, aligned, and ogled. Kelly their technician is jealous of the way the BRZ can now turn in to corners compared to his E36 M3. So much so he felt compelled to tell me. I have to say the experience of the drive home emphasized his statement. I may have taken some of the 'fun factor' out of the car by tightening it up so much, but the car can be thrown in and comes out of corners now like it is on rails. Unperceivable body lean, perfect feedback, as balanced as any car I've driven, ever. I'm so happy I could just shit!
