I don't see why they would be different? For any model, NA's included.

Soooo....

I read through all 3 threads and took a gander at the Facebook offering as well.

I learned nothing about this product. Not even a link to their website. A couple Of good Ol boys with obvious vested interest have posted pics and Crowed about how great the ride is, but it still feels hinky to me. $$$$$, #####? Has Les gotten anything bolted up yet?


What are the limitations of this setup? What are the benefits? Can a N/A benefit? Is this track only material?

These threads are so full of non information it's almost lunacy. Bubble gum chompin and moonshine drinkin.

LMAO..... there are some photos on the facebook page. If that is all it is, I may pass. I was expecting a little more, but it is early and we shall see. Looks to be for the track, but may be wrong...I will keep an open mind for now.

I got an email from them Friday so I think it's finally "soon" as we understand the word. I have nothing more to add … today.

Im not sure what people are having a hard time grasping. It's a suspension kit, how is this so hard to understand? It's comprised of springs shocks, adjustable sway bar end links and a few other adjustable parts. What where you expecting? There will be a full on race kit as well as a kit available that allows you to use your existing yellow street konis if you have those. The race kit, is stiffer as it has stiffer springs but it is completely streetable. The ride is suprisingly good for how stiff the springs are. If it's too stiff for you, you have the option to change out the springs for whatever spring rate you want. The shocks are single adjustable with the ability to adjust ride height.
I'm at a loss for words at how negative people are about this considering that no one else is making anything for this platform.
I have no vested interest in this product, I asked them if they could make something for the platform because no one else is and for the most part crossfire owners would like something to help the car handle a little better. I did this to help out the community in general.
Lastly if you don't have the ability to google Ground Control and find their website on your own without someone posting a link for you perhaps you should not own a computer.

I'm excited, just patiently waiting for a price. I'm scared it will come down to a TT V12 or the suspension... In which case my crossfire will handle like crap for a while LOL.

LOLOLLL Yes oddly enough i did manage to figure out it was a suspension kit. Thats exactly what caught my attention. I clicked on the only link that proposed to lead me to information, and it took me straight to evilbook. Now I don't use idiot book on my computers ( everyone doesn't need to know what I had for dinner), so I went and got my wifes laptop, and checked out the offering there. Very pretty pictures, So I was till interested, BUT no links to any information on the product. Yikes! so now I'm 2 computers and 90 minutes in to this search and I know that there might be a suspension kit out soon. ( I knew that at minute 1)

There are all kinds of suspension kits that perform all kinds of functions sir. You posted as much information in this response as in the other 3 threads combined. BTW I did Google Ground Control and Guess what? They have a big fat 0 as well.

I understand it's earlier than I was hoping, and I will probably just go a different direction. But honestly as I read the threads, I noticed anticipation and interest as opposed to negativity and Haterism. If People trying to Ferret out information from the only people who claim to have something is so difficult for you and your Homeboy to handle then You 2 should probably Bow out of the marketing of this product and let the people who work for Ground control take over. Simple real information is all that was requested. This Ain't rocket surgery.

Just so you know I'm not marketing their product, I just got the ball rolling. They are the ones who will be releasing all the information in regards to the details of the kit. There is a lack of information because the kits have not been released yet. They have specifically asked for us not to discuss any of the actual details of the kit as something could change last minute. If you want details then call them...I suggest you dial 411 as you are scared of the internet..just make sure you take off your tinfoil hat first, it might cause interference with your reception.

Hmmmm maybe you use a different Google then I do...it's first on the list

Being ready and being released are two different things. The kit itself is ready, there is still some work that needs to be done such as photos taken and website write up and so on. My kit will be shipped tomorrow, they are completed now we are just waiting for the official release...if that makes sense?

definitely some tinfoil hat guys on the Xfire forum, just like the benz ones. They tell you to never try anything new, and thats why no progress is ever made. I was gonna have to import a B16/B14 kit from Germany until I saw this. I see my next suspension upgrade now
