Time to (slowly) prep for next year.

First thing is first. Suspension!

Up front, I run 6" Swift Springs (look at previous pages for rates) /w a Swift 60mm helper. Fully compressed, the helper adds 1.2" of ride height despite me bottoming out the spring collar to have the front sit as low as possible. At this height, the lower arms still show that I can lower the car an additional 3/4" without inverting arm angles.

Enter Hyperco helper springs. Presumably, they only add 0.25" to ride height and will allow me to work with the collars for fine tuning.

See picture below. Swift photo added as well.

Black Friday is also around the corner. If SPL has a sale, I may pick up their full front end kit which should allow me to play with ride height even further and still maintain proper arm/tie rod angles.
