Is the front camber even adjustable without C/C plates? Maybe the manual has the rest of the alignment specs?

I know there has been a bunch posted already but here is mine. It's in the shop today getting lowered so I will have more pics coming in a few days once it stops raining...
Noice! Congrats. I hope that the entrance from the street to your driveway is nice & gentle.;) The PPL2 Supplemental to the Owner's Manual (thanks, Infidex) says what I was thinking I would have to do if I actually ever end up getting one: "...when crossing speed bumps or driveway curbs, you should approach at a 45 degree angle to reduce the risk of vehicle damage." The entrance to my driveway isn't exactly smooth...:(

+1 on request for pics after the lowering is complete.

This I did not know when identifying PP2 wheels:

19 in. x 10.5 in. front wheel, with the valve hole in a smaller window.
19 in. x 11 in. rear wheel, with the valve hole in a larger window.

Learn something new everyday.

So the car is now lowered on FP GT350 springs and I have new tires on the rear (MPS4S 325/30). The front tires (MPS4S 305/30) will be in tomorrow and they will be put on. I got a little crazy with the rears so the poke is about what the fronts have now. I'm pretty happy with the increased sidewall and the stance but they are pretty damn wide. Lol

Yes!!!!! I've been waiting for 325 �� please take more pictures to show if they pop out....... Please ��
Here are a few I took before I left. They definitely poke a bit and I’m currently at -1.7 camber on the drivers side. The passenger is at -1 and they poke a LOT but that will fixed on Wednesday. I think it will look fine once they are both correct though. I'll get some more pics once the fronts are finished and the springs have had a few days to settle.

1st impression: splitter doesn't look as low as I thought it would. I agree that we need some pics after everything settles.
2nd impression: Holy Pro-Stock, Batman: are those rear tires wiiiiiide!

Looks killer Scott:cheers:
What are your other mod plan's for her man? Can you tell how much the actual drop was on the spring's man?
I love seeing modded car's with temp tags still on. Shows there are still hope for us modaholics not going anywhere:amen:

Thanks man. The drop on the springs is listed as 3/4" which is close to what I got before any settling occurs. There is about 2 fingers of clearance in the rear and maybe 2.5 in the front. Once I change the front tires from SC2's to 4S's I think this will tighten up a little due to the side wall differences.

The near future plans will be adding paint protection to the front, stripes, tinted tails, and probably an H-pipe resonator delete.

It doesn't appear as though i will have any rubbing issues from normal street driving. I'm not sure about the track so we will have to see how that goes. I think if I can tuck the rear's in a bit more it may be OK but only time will tell. The splitter also clears when backing into my driveway but I'll be curious how it will measure up to some of the larger speed bumps. Lol


I took a few measurements for anyone interested in ride height after the springs are on. I probably should have done this before as well but I forgot. Again this may change slightly if the car settles but here is the current:

Front Splitter: 5 3/4" (At the Front), 5 1/4" (In front of tire)
Front Fender: 27 1/8" from the ground to the bottom of the fender (going from SC2's to MPS 4S's may change this slightly)
Rear Fender: 27 3/4" from the ground to the bottom of the fender

200 Mile PP2 Review!

So this is my first Mustang, really my first car with this level of power. So my impressions are totally from a newcomer to the S550 world!

Exterior: The Front splitter is definitely low, and sticks out. But I just find myself backing into 90% of parking spots. It looks better nose out anyways. The Royal Crimson is an amazing color that changes depending on the light and angle, I am really happy I chose it! The PP2 wheels are a great contrast to the color.

Interior: I've ridden in Mustangs in the past but nothing has ever felt this premium before. The Premium seats are comfortable and hug decently. certainly not Recaros but none the less. They heat up and cool down better then any other car I've owned! The Shaker system I feel could sound better, but I may just need to fool around with the settings some more to get it right. The digital dash is definitely a highlight, and I highly recommend anyone on the fence about 401a to get it. You won't be sorry! Sync 3 is so much better then the previous versions, its responsive and easy to use. I just need to figure out how to get apps loaded!

Transmission: I have read in the past the MT82 was not all that good. Perhaps its my newness to the Mustang, but the transmission shifts like butter, engages smooth and just has a overall great feel! The Clutch took some getting use to, its fairly light and has a weird engage point but I've gotten use to it.

Active Exhaust: The YouTube clips will never ever do this justice, Just get it and know you will be so very very happy. At highway speeds the car is quite and cruises. Conversations are at a normal speaking voice. But when you just want to smile a little, push the gas and she growls.

Engine: Being my first Mustang, I don't have much to go on, but man does this thing PULL and HARD. For a car of this performance level I wasn't sure what kind of MPG I would see, but I am pleased to see around 25-27 on the highway for now. I know these numbers will change as everything gets broken in.

Tires: Lets face it, they are race slicks and we all know they won't last long. They do exactly what they are suppose to be, grip the road and hold on.

Overall: Damn am I happy. I ordered my car fully loaded as I intend to keep it forever. With all these options I feel like its a great bargain. Power is on point, It looks and drives fantastic.

I have no plans for modifications at this point, but I am sure they will come! I installed some weather tech mats in the front and had the whole car wrapped in SunTek Ultra PPF with Suntek Carbon 25% Tint. Oh, and Black emblems. I feel like PP2 should of just come with Black from the get go. They fit in much better with the black spoiler.

I will post a better set of photos this weekend when I have time to take the car out and take some proper photos with a camera other than my cell!
