I have the FP track suspension, so far I'm happy with it. I've only driven it a few hundred miles so far I'm looking forward to seeing how it does at an autox event next weekend..

What was stock suspension for you and how’s the difference day to day?

What’s the price point of the Ohlins stuff? Where did you get it?

For on road, it was night and day.. I prefer my cars to be a little on the firm side. It actually handles like a sports car now, not that it was bad before but it definitely is a lot better. I’ll find out about the track next weekend when I take it to an autocross event.

Personally I would go with something a little more refined. After having a set of Steedas and then going to the FR track dampers, I would go with the latter or some Billsteins.

I’m looking at this setup

HPDE Dual Rate pack w sway bars.

Track and general weekend shenanigans. Any feedback or other stuff I should consider? What do you run?

What kind of driving will you be doing? There are so many options, need to know how you will use the car if you want recommendations from the forum. I'm with bnight on the Ohlins...great on track and for highly-spirited driving but they aren't much fun around town when you are getting milk and OJ.

It's interesting that there's such a limited number of Bilstein users.

If staying in the "budget" range of twin tubes and spring replacements, you may consider.

Why do you say that? Is the benefit track or street?

Not so hot because of firmness/jarring for day to day?

Track and weekend shenanigans. It’s a toy car so I’m not worried about being too stiff per say… I am more concerned with aggressive fun than compliant/comfy.
