Thanks for clarifying Luc, could you tell me what parts are added onto the PP1/2 for chassis stiffening from what I understand it's a K brace, strut tower brace, and thicker rear sway bars. I went coilovers because I only heard good things about KW coming from the bmw community as I wanted my...
Well said, right when I got the car and installed the coilovers 3 days after I got the car, corona hit and I couldn't go to autoX or tracks leaving me with only canyon roads like ACH, big tujunga, etc. I want to learn the car with traction, then without. The out of the box setting of KW for my...
I've had this car for 3 weeks roughly so I'm changing things I.E. I have lightweight rims and sticky tires coming. I got this car for such a cheap price I didn't care about PP1 package or anything. I could care less about the look, If i wanted looks without functionality I'd cut my springs, not...
1.5 inch all corners, my alignment is good, i don't have a camber kit but I have -1.8 camber on the front can't remember the rears when i was at the alignment shop. I can keep the line, I just want to go faster, and faster. Toe was OEM spec.
Also just to add onto this could it have been TC or SC, because I was on sport + the entire time and I believe in race mode traction is off and ESC is "dumbed" down, maybe I was fighting with TC or ESC. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks to everyone who posted, it was really thoughtful and interesting.
Took my car out for some overly spirited driving and something doesn't feel right or "planted", when I enter corners I'm fighting with my car (i.e. you can feel load going to the opposing side of my steering input, maybe understeer?), currently I have a SR strut tower brace and St coilovers. I'm...
I just wanted to know if anyone has the KW v1 or St suspension equivalents and how they've held up 1 year or 15K miles +. I've heard horror stories about KW quality control and lasting only 15k miles. Bilstein seems to have much tighter QC than the rest.
Curious if other 18+ S550 owners have this dent in the front subframe or if it was caused by something else is it that serious? In my opinion, it doesn't look serious at all. In addition, I found this really long bolt by the driver side (not present on passenger side) that is the cause of a...
After a couple of hours researching what suspension to add to my non-PP GT I went for St coilovers (no rust problems here in CA) as they are essentially KW v1s and I'm installing them tomorrow. Pedders were the other option and for me, it was a coin flip choice and it landed on ST. I want it to...
Hey guys, I have a set of 20" X 10.5" +27, hub fits perfectly,fitted with 255s rims sitting in my garage I wanted to know if there is any possible way to fit them without rubbing. Would spacers do anything?
Hey guys, i have ported intake manifolds on my car and i wanna know if a 14 gt TB will fit with the spacer linked in the first section will be basically bolt on like? and can someone clarify the shape of the pipe that's needed such has how long, and the degree for a stock factory box? I'm...
