  1. Pirelli World Challenge... WTF is with the KIAs?

    I passed a Kia Optima today on the road :D lol.
  2. Ground Control CC plates

    Old thread, but I figured I'd post a little update.Ended up getting Maximum Motorsports caster- camber plates after speaking with Rehagen (great guys by the way). Very impressed with the quality! I just put them in the other day and they are just as quiet as the Steeda Heavy Duty mounts...
  3. World-Challenge at Barber Motorsports Park

    Seems like a total mis-judgement of Mr. Buffomante :(
  4. Pirelli World Challenge... WTF is with the KIAs?

    I understand the $$$ with it, but those cars are BS.I say BS because they get allowance to add modifications that the other cars can't just because they aren't actually sold in such a configuration. Tough shiznit!I dont pay attention to those cars when watching the races since they arent the...
  5. Ground Control CC plates

    Good to hear!I had mine sent back to Hypermotive for them to inspect and send back o GC. Hopefully I'll get a refund. I'll probably just go for Vorshlag when I decide to upgrade again.
  6. Thinking of Going Steeda Lowering Springs...Maybe...

    1. First I've heard of this. 2. You should be able to get almost -2.0 camber with the Steeda plates. 3. I would suggest either getting an adjustable front bar or get a stock GT (24mm) or V6 (22mm). I run a 22mm bar. 4. No exerience with this.
  7. Ground Control CC plates

    The upper plastic ring with the cross-patterned-ish reinforcements stays stationary. The bearings are betwwen the ring ang the lower, rubber isolator (which has a hard plastic retainer as well). So, "modifying" the upper ring would only be required in the specific areas needed.
  8. Ground Control CC plates

    In my album, you'll see some pictures that have a metric scale held up to certain areas of the camber plate. The is room for a larger flage on the bolt. There is room for a thicker bracket. There is room for larger studs.

  13. Ground Control CC plates

    Link above has the gallery. Here are some pictures more related to the issue I stated:Torque spec is 18 lb/ft, not 24 lb/ft. Threaded end pulled right out, starting at the thinner end, bending the bracket in the process due to uneven distribution of force. Also, the larger hole/slot...

  15. Thinking of Going Steeda Lowering Springs...Maybe...

    Oh, to answer your question on camber and lowering: No, you can get away with the stock strut mounts. But I will say that upgrading from the stock mounts isn't a bad idea. Not a must do, though. When I went from stock to Steeda Heavy Duty mounts, I actually noticed a slight decrease in NVH.
