[Jeff's FRC]

Anyone have any info on these or real world results? I haven't been able to find much...

Well, looks like I might be the first. I ordered a set I found off eBay for $633 shipped

Those are the ones that come in the FRPP $1,200 handling package, a slight upgrade over the PP maybe? Basically you are getting the kit without the sways and links it looks like.

They better be an upgrade over the PP parts! Lol

FRPP also sells a kit with the standard PP shocks/struts called the "street kit". Seems like they're referring to the ones I ordered as the "track kit". I'll be using CJPP springs with these.

Hopefully have my suspension bits installed this Friday.

Hopefully everyone sees good results with these. I think personally it's better to wait for Koni to release their Sport shocks/struts for the 15+. It'll probably be close in price, but adjustable.

I'm personally waiting for Koni or Bilstein to come to market, if I'm ready to buy and still have neither available I'll buy a coil-over set-up in the $1,500 range and be done with it.

I hear you guys on the Koni's. My car will most likely never see a track, so I'm betting these will be a big improvement over the oem stuff and will be great for street duty.

I'll report back after I get them installed.

On the BMW's I used to run the Koni's or nice coilovers always gave a great ride on daily drivers when the dampening was set right.

I am waiting for the Steeda struts and shocks that will be matched to their progressive springs. Should make for a nice improvement over the factory GTPP struts/shocks.

Wasn't trying to rain on your parade btw. I am looking forward to hearing your impressions.

Oh I know, don't worry about it!

Keep in mind, the impressions will be coming from a weekend warrior with no track experience...lol

Got these installed along with CJPP springs last night. Took the car for a drive today and it's perfect! No more mushy suspension with body roll or squatting between shifts. Took some hard corners and the car just feels planted. Ride isn't too harsh at all either, it's how a sports car should ride IMO.

Are these the same shocks that come in the ford suspension package with springs?

Since I'm happy with ride height a nice set of shocks would be good with me.

I believe FRPP also sells a "street" suspension kit that utilizes the GTPP shocks
