We didnt finish, but got a lot done.

Already had the MM Panhard bar, but today we installed:"
Max. Motorsports TQ arm
Max. Motorsports Weight Jacker LCA's
H&R Race Springs (they look so cool in white :)
My old sub frames were not thick enough for the tq arm so I had to run over to Steeda and pick up a new set of SFC's.

Yes, very lucky to live 20 min. from Steeda, 40 min. from UPR, 45 min. from Lethal, 10 min. from D'Agostino's.

Upper control arms are gone, yay. Max. Motorsports parts are just the beefiest parts I've seen.

Steeda SFC's are very high quality as well. Beautiful welds and extra support pieces.

My arse should be firmly planted on the ground after these mods!!

Driving impressions tomorrow. I know its going to make more noise, small price to pay.

Nice! I would love to be able to throw the MM catalog at my car.

It is nice being around things like that. I am 10 minutes from Summit and 45 from Mustangs Unlimited.

Sirl, that looks awesome. Nice work, I'm sure you'll love all the new goodies.

For the rest of you that live so close to performance parts companies, you all suck. I live an hour from the Mississippi, does that count for anything?

Picked up the car today.. first impressions...

Much more noise, vibration etc.

Basically, the cross member that the tq arm goes into, is welded right under your a**, and is bolted directly to the rear end. So every clunk, clank, whine, bump, etc, you hear and feel 10 fold!!

Honestly, I would not recommend this for a daily driver.

That being said, it handles bumps fine, and feel pretty well planted. Although I have shitty tires, and the spin real easy.

Homestead is next weekend, i'll have some vids then.

Later,

I have been considering this package as one of the options for my car but I drive 20,000 miles a year.

Keep us informed on how you like it.

if you drive that much, I would do the PH bar with stock upper control arms (per MM)
Good Lower control arms and some set of Sport Springs and fat front sway bar.

Thats about how I had my car for some time, I was very pleased with the handling.

Trust me, the way it is now, you feel every clink, clunk, clack, whine, buzz etc.

Thanks for the advice. No torque arm for me. I think I would get very unhappy with my car very fast.

Cool.. just figured out how to do multi quotes. (old man learns slow)

Bro, Homestead next Saturday, Feb. 27th, You got a helmet? I would be more than happy to take you out for a session (30 min.) on Homestead. PM me for details.

Sirl-What spring rate are you using for the font and rear?
Per Jason at Max. Motorsports, 260 rear, 650 front. I may need to go up in the front. Feels a little soft right now.
