Performance is everything... And if I can't get more HP without spending stupid $$$ I gotta take turns 20 mph faster than a car with 100 more HP to stay competitive...

After removing more than 400 lbs of weight from the car before the start of this season, the Eibach springs and Koni dampers that originally lowered the car 1.2" from OEM (3,100 lbs) lifted the car back to the original height (or more) with a 2" gap in the wheel well (2,640 lbs) with full tank and driver...

Since I run road racing courses, I decided to drop the car as low as possible without having tire rub from the Hankook 225/18 fronts and 275/18 rears and having to modify the suspension too much... In doing so, we cut the spring perches and relocated (re-welded) them 1.25" higher than OEM placement and eliminated the perch pad... This dropped the car 2"... Then we had custom spacers built that widened the track on the front by 24mm and the rear by 40mm... We then had to roll the fenders to make clearance for the tires...

I'll post before and after photos later this week... The car now measures 4" at the running board and handles like a slot car and looks terrific laying so low to the ground...
