Nice! How did you come up with those spring rates? Isn’t that rear a little too stiff relative to the front? I'd be a bit concerned with excessive oversteer.. Who knows, you may be just fine though.

Did you re-valve your Bilsteins for the stiffer spring rates? Mine are re-valved (stiffer and lower), but still seem to "pogo" a bit with my (450/600) spring setup. How's the ride?

Great looking car BTW. Very sharp. Do you have any rubbing w/ the fenders at that height?

Tell me what you think. The ride is awesome.
The only thing is that my front strut bar can't go on because the bolts are too short.


SPRING RATES:
Front -500lbs
Rear - 750lbs

I am using Bilstein sport shocks,at the moment.


Everything seems fine,so far.I have no rubbing at all.

It feels great,but I di have 1 problem.My front strut bar,the bolts aren't long enough.
