It's funny you linked that, I was looking at the ad when I got this notification. Also Stage 3 Motorsports shows a full set in stock, but not the rears separate. Maybe my wait will be over soon.

Lol I'm glad I didn't make that my plan. FP Track struts and shocks are great. Just completed the quartet this weekend.

If I can't get my hands on the Bilstein rears I'll probably just buy the FP shocks and be done with it. Car already handles amazingly, so I'm not too worried. It's more annoying than anything.

Well, I got a PayPal request for my shocks this morning. The order was so old my credit card had expired. I don't have shipping details yet, but if they're coming from San Diego I should get them by this weekend.

I'll post pics once they're in, and I get them on. Any advice on rear shock mounts? Are the BMR worth the money?

Yep!

Yes.
Increased suspension travel. Lack of binding you get with stock mounts.

Any updates on the Bilsteins shipping?

Sorry for not posting, I've been super busy. I installed the shocks 10 days ago. The car rides great!

Awesome. BMR mounts? What springs?

Still running the BMR sp080 you recommend to me a couple years ago. That with the Bilsteins, gt350r sways, BMR cradle lockout, and Apex 18x10 wheels is my suspension setup.

I commute approximately 80 miles a day in this car and it rides great. Handling is fantastic, the shocks definitely settled the rear end.

Only thing I gotta figure out right now is a noise from the right rear that sounds like something loose in the trunk. But it isn't horrible and I'm not ready to start removing interior panels.

I'll add the BMR shock mounts later this fall. A french drain, and paver install in the backyard has me tapped out.

Bilstein B6 Installed with Vogtland Sport (-1” all corners) The car drives amazing.

Keep the car very planted but need to sacrifice the comfort in return.

Shocks and struts can have a little initial "stiction" that does decrease over time, with certain aspects of ride quality improving as a result. Most likely, seal friction is involved.
