^25 inches off the ground at the top of the wheel opening at the highest point. So i wanna say 3-4inches lower than stock? When i had the Roush sport springs i could fit my fist inbetween the wheel and splash shield, and it was much lower than stock with the Roush crap

ride isnt TOO bad if the struts aren't cranked up to mega firm. Drives smooth, you just get a ton of road feedback. Gets rough if the road isnt taken care of

Come on down and drive in New Orleans, you'll need a new set of tires in a week after your suspension gets knocked out of alignment due to all the pot holes lol. That's the only thing I don't miss about Selena is the low as ride kept me at Firestone once a month getting everything realigned, it sucks around here.

Went to an autocross today. Night and day. The coilovers with street tires performed better than the Roush stg.1 with Kumho Victoracers. Should be getting pics and maybe a video from some of the other guys there, gonna post em up when i can

First two events with the GR40 stuff, excuse the poor driving, still getting used to everything again:



Cone destruction!!!!!
in my defense, it was my first run.....

october 17th Idaho Expo center taking the 180 like a noob:

Dirty run http://www.youtube.com/user/gregoryg...45/QQNmbwipmEg

Clean run http://www.youtube.com/user/gregoryg...44/OZg_Wqc_tHM

These first runs were at 4.6 degrees of positive caster and -2.5degrees of camber on the front. Front struts were turned all the way down to get a feel for the valving. Griggs has them set to produce more BOUND than REBOUND, which feels better to me. I do more controlling of where the weight goes than components of the suspension, thats a huge plus. I've increased strut stiffness from lowest setting to turned all the way up, and then turned one half turn down. Hoping it performs! The steering response is incredible, hoping for more front tire bite and less body with the struts being cranked up.

Sadly enough, I thought i was running about 34 pounds of tire pressure, which is lower than i like. When i finally got around to checking my tire pressure, it was a dismal 27 pounds. Ouch. Wasted an entire weekend of testing because i assumed.

Ahahahahaha you DNF'd both runs because of your goober passenger having his hand on the roof at the start! I can't believe they didn't say something about that on the first run.
