I know what you mean when you want to shift gears quickly it is a bit on the way. Though it is nice in highway.

It generates a lot of noise. I'm going to delete it and see how I like it. I'm curious to how it will effect cabin noise, looks and comfort. I'm doing a few interior mods and will be removing my center console again so it should be fun. I can always putti back in too if I change my mind.

I want to welcome and thank AST Suspension for supporting my build. AST has hooked me up with some AST 4200's with swift springs.

Checkout HP Autowerks for more information and sales.

This might be my final update before I pick it up. Venom and I will be flying down this friday to DTM Autobody in El Monte to pick up our cars and hang out with Einser M. We have a few other stops down there which Venom will reveal and will be visiting a few other 1addicts.

That's crazy man.

Your car is looking good. Cant wait to see the final product

Are you changing out the rear suspension and subframe to the M model?

The car has M3 front control arms, m3 sway bars, adjustable end links, m3 rear subframe bushings and a wavetrac LSD. I will likely get rogue toe arms from HPA and a few other bits. I dont want to upgrade to OEM 1M Rearsubframe and diff. If i hadnt done the previous work, I probably would have considered it, but at this point it would be too costly.

The new suspension will go on at the same time as the new stoptechs.

The truth. The car still has suspension brakes, then a few more engine and tuning mods, then one more round of body/aero work.
