- EF1 replied to the thread SR performance coilovers VS Koni sport/Eibach?.I ran Steeda Sport springs on my 2011 with Koni Oranges for a few years with Steeda camber plates. They were better all around than the stock springs/dampers. The car was composed on the track without being harsh on the street. I wanted to try... (see full post)

- stevbd replied to the thread S197 BackInBlack.You’re going a little deeper than I am, but the Lashbrook rebuild does use the carbon synchros. And still recommending the oem fill. Lashbrook has been exceptional imo btw. (see full post)
S550AZ replied to the thread SR performance coilovers VS Koni sport/Eibach?.I just ordered the ground control set up with yellow koni's last week, front springs at 380 lbs and rears at 200 lbs.

ArizonaBOSS replied to the thread Unfair advantage.There are a couple guys that run those out here in AZ, Clay Koevary (yellow #55 "Camaro"), Parker DeLonghe (blue/white #14), and at least one other guy. If you see them at the track, go talk to them about what it takes to keep those cars... (see full post)- TeeLew replied to the thread SR performance coilovers VS Koni sport/Eibach?.I agree with Dave. Almost every GT slick on the planet is for an 18" wheel, so 18's are a no-brainer in my book. My car came with 19's, but for track duty, I'm a fan of an 18" wheel.I like to have some sidewall to work with as a driver. Very... (see full post)
