Koni yellows swift springs M3 bits installed

[Zombie1]

So finally got all the parts installed by VinnyTenRacing a nice local performance shop. I'm still waiting to get a 4-wheel aligment(car goes in Thursday) by TKX performance.

So here's the list of the parts installed
-M3 upper and lower control arms
-M3 front sway bar
-M3 rear subframe bushings
-M3 rear guide rods
-M3 rear upper link kit
-Koni yellows/SwiftspecR springs

I only drove the car a short distance, and for obvious reasons I wasn't testing out the new setup in the corners. I did have to drive it on the highway for a short period and the car felt rock solid. Hit a couple level changes on the highway and the rear end was like a rock no wiggles no jumping no shaking. I have the Yellows set at half way all around with the swift springs to compliment them. The ride is sublime compared to the stock set up. I will give a thorough review on my new set up Thursday night after the aligment also will post pictures up as soon as I have a nice day the weather has been crappy the past couple days.

I have the exact same setup, add a few extras. You'll love it. My Konis' are set at 60% stiff all 4. It's great on the track too.

I have the same setup, minus the springs. The biggest surprise for me was how much better the ride quality became. Much more comfortable than stock.

I have almost the same set up. Front M3 control arm kit plus M3 subframe bushings and alignment Labor was 1k. I did the front sway bar myself as well as the rear M3 upper guide rod and upper link kit. I did the rear springs and shocks myself, but had a shop do the front springs, struts and add Dinan camber plates. They added an alignment and I recall labor was $300. So $1300 labor for everything with some DIY on my own. This was not done all at once, but in stages, hence the multiple alignments.

That's a lot of changes! It will be like a completely different car, and I know you will be smiling because I have a similar setup. Those VMRs look great too.
