Steeda goodies

[jbailer]

Was adding another suspension part and just admiring all the Steeda goodies that make my driving so fun! Although I bought the Koni shocks from Steeda, they don't count. How many Steeda parts can you see in the pic? This obviously isn't all of the goodness that makes her corner like a beast and ride so nice but a lot in one view.

Do I see a spacer on the top spring perch?. I have an ECO as well , with S the H, and both spherical bearings along with the adjustable camber kit(not the arm)not installed yet. just can't make my mind up on shocks and springs

VERY good eye! It's only a 1/8" spacer, didn't think anyone would catch that one.

What will you use the car for? Any racing or just DD? I just DD and the Steeda Progressives are awesome, WAY better than the stock PP springs. The Steeda Pro-Action dampers are a better match for them than the Konis but they weren't out yet when I bought mine. Actually I think the Pro-Actions are probably the best with just about any of the springs right now.

It will be a DD but I will take it to the track 2-3 times a year , My build is more of a poor mans DB-9 (kinda looks like one) . Yes I was thinking of the Steeda Adj's with either the Steeda linear, progressive or the BMR sp80, or the Bilstein with the same combo,s. Did you get a spring rate for the progressive's I have conflicting answers.

They're really nice, they soak up the small bumps on the road so you don't feel like you're getting beat up yet they stiffen quickly going into a turn providing great support. Mike, SteedaTech posted a great article on the advantages of progressive springs, I just can't find it right now.

They have this pdf posted with the installation instructions for the progressive springs: Linear vs Progressive Rate Suspension Springs

Very Nice! New fixed Steeda Billet upper camber arms in the future?

The best,

Do you think the rear is lowered too much?

Also, have you tried both Koni and Pro-Action dampers? I wonder how different they are for DD.

I wanted just a little more room above the bump stop.

I haven't tried both but the Pro-Actions are a little softer range than the Konis. They seem to be the best suited for most springs. i think if you were going with a stiffer spring, the Konis would be ok.

While that's a nice piece for sure, why wouldn't I just get the adjustable while I was at it? ;)

So nobody wants to take a stab at it? I'll give you a hint, if it's modified, it's Steeda except for the shocks which I bought from Steeda. I'm only talking about the parts you can actually see in the pic although a couple of them you can only see a little bit of. And [MENTION=23180]slink914[/MENTION] already called out the hardest one to see, the 1/8" spring spacers.

I think I may see seven?

That's pretty close, there's more. A couple a hard to see like the spring spacers that slink914 pointed out although I think that 1 was the hardest. I wasn't even going to count them until he pointed them out because in the picture I could barely tell they were there.

You got it! Was it a guess or did you see them all? Some are hard to spot unless you know what you're looking for.

Oh sh*t, I now see the IRS support braces that I didn't notice before. I didn't count the spacer that was mentioned earlier. Do I get a going away gift for second place? Like a mouse trap, a toilet brush. or a fly swatter?
