  1. S197 First stang

    I had a feeling they were made my eibach because the spring rates are exactly the same between the sport lines and the k springs
  2. S197 First stang

    Got the suspension (almost) all put on Sunday! After waiting for my front struts on back order for what felt like years they finally came in. Full adjustable koni yellows matched with a set of Eibach sportline springs. With the springs and a pair of Eibach camber bolts I achieved 2.2-2.4 degrees...
  3. S197 Eibach 4.12535 - Sportline Kit

    Negative camber won’t be to much of an issue. I’ll be installing camber bolts at the same time and once it’s all done I’d be doing an alignment to fix any issues anyway. I’m currently running a 255 front 285 rear on a 9.5 inch wheel which I don’t think will have any issue but we will see.
  4. S197 Eibach 4.12535 - Sportline Kit

    I have the opportunity to possibly buy a set of Eibach sportline springs for a very good price ($200 CAD or $146 USD) wondering if anyone can speak on how they are for street and track driving. I’m guessing I will have to change bump stops in the rear but I’m okay with that.
  5. S197 3V S197 Lowering Springs Options?

    Wondering if you have got and installed the koni yellows. I’m looking into getting springs for my car and the Steeda sports keep coming up. I already have a set of koni yellows and I was curious about how the springs pair with those dampers
  6. BMR 1.5inch lowering springs (SP068R)

    Noted. My dad has the p springs on his car and I find them a little bit rough. Do you have experience with these springs or just that 1.5 inch is a bit much for performance?
  7. BMR 1.5inch lowering springs (SP068R)

    Wondering if anyone has used these springs and can speak on them. Hoping to get a good street and HPDE performance matching these with my koni yellows
  8. Huge brake upgrade for S197 chassis

    When I end up getting different wheels with they hopefully be a 10.5 or 11
  9. Huge brake upgrade for S197 chassis

    It would probably be cheaper then shipping them to be honest
  10. Huge brake upgrade for S197 chassis

    Okay thanks. So then I will probably have an easier time finding a 19 inch wheel that will clear the 6 pots then an 18 inch wheel.I had been looking at 18 inch apexs during the sale more as a day dream then an actual idea and the shipping to Canada is absolutely insane so they may not be an option
  11. Huge brake upgrade for S197 chassis

    Awesome thanks. I’m going to run the 4 pots for now until I can same up some money and buy different wheels. Is the issue of them fitting internal barrel size of wheel or is it the spokes coming in contact with the callipers
  12. S550 brake swap for s197

    This is what I was thinking aswell. If I later get different wheels some day will I be able to use the same brake lines and rotors with the 6 pots?is it worth upgrading rear callipers or just getting a set of performance pads for the back?
  13. Huge brake upgrade for S197 chassis

    I may have missed this reading the previous 32 pages so I apologize is this is a repeat. Wondering if anyone knows weather the 6 pot s550 brakes will fit under my 07-09 gt500 wheels. I currently have a 20mm spacer.
  14. S550 brake swap for s197

    I believe I found my answer but then there is the question of if it’s even worth buying the 4 Pots or just buying the 6 pots. Only concern would be in the 6 pots will fit under my wheels in the front
  15. S550 brake swap for s197

    Wondering what is needed for this swap. From what I understand it requires s550 4 pot callipers and 2011 G500 rotorswondering if all years of the S550 will work or if it’s only specific years. Also wondering where is the best place to get the rotors.I have a source for a pair of 2023 4 pot...
