Getting my steeda chocks and struts today. Also going to get the BMR CB005 installed. I have the steeda rear diff business but I am afraid to have them installed as I don't want any noise introduced. I have heard of issues with NVH especially when installed along with the CB005. Any feedback on how common noise issues are?
Nice man! Looks like you're building a sweet DD car. I just installed some stuff too including the CB005. Let us know how it goes!

No noise with the CB005 for me so far but only had it for a day. I can feel the difference already though.

Thanks. Made the decision to get the shocks/struts and CB005 but hold off on the differential bushings for now. Will see how it performs with these new upgrades first. For a DD just might be enough.

I think you're gonna love it. I'm gonna try to do a full review of the BMR stuff I put on. I'm gonna wait a week or so until I get some miles on to know for sure. But I can say yes I feel the difference of the CB005 and the car feels connected now. I let my neighbor drive it yesterday and he mashed the gas. Car was planted, and we hit a bump coming across the overpass. Stayed planted and he hit 120 before I even realized. I couldn't even feel it.

Awesome if the CB005 plants the rear I should be good. I already have seen good improvements with the Steeda Sways I added a couple months ago, the Steeda Springs I added last year and hoping the New Steeda Shocks and Struts really dial things in. Curvy roads are fun :)

Not to much nvh. I have all the steeda stuff on my car and it's an auto. I only experience a clunk when shifting out of park.

I think that's gonna be a killer setup. Unfortunately I can't tell you what each thing did by itself, but as a total package I love it. I think the shocks and struts are important. I think that's going to dial it right in if they're like the Konis. Adding those to springs and the sway bars it's gonna be awesome. I think the CB005 will tie things together. Mine feels super planted and it's easy now to burn rubber coming out of a corner. You don't have unpredictable handling where the traction control tries to reign in the car. So before either you lose the rear end or you have to back way off the throttle to maintain control. Not so anymore with my setup. I can give it half throttle and peel out and go on down the road. Friggin' blast man!

SO I got the Steeda Shocks & Struts plus the BMR lockout kit and Motorsport Tech spacers installed the other day. I think I am now done with my suspension. Nice improvement. Bumps are much less harsh, no new visible noise. I did have some noise after install, took it back and they found one of the brake heat shields was a little bent and rubbing against the rotor, fixed it and all is good. This car handles so well now. I also have the steeda progressive springs and sway bars. Great job Steeda and BMR!

That's awesome man! Sounds like a great setup. Do you feel any difference with the cradle lockout? Enjoy your ride
