Apologies to any Underworld fans

So I got my GC/WRX setup installed yesterday......


And it's great.
315 F/250 R progressive springs, 9inch/8inch. WRX struts and hats. Koni race bumpstops. No camber issues. With a sight alignment, it tracks beuatifully, which is a testament to the shop who put them in (S-Squared here in Sacramento). No creaks, rattles, booms, anything. It rides better than it did with stock OB suspension, and handling is unbelievably improved. It's about a 3 inch drop, to about a 1 finger gap in back and 2 in the front; I'll even it out in a weekor so after the springs do any settling they're gonna do.

As for the shop, Nate did an incredible job. The GC's look like they were a part of the struts from the beginning, and his assessment for spring rates was spot-on, as I couldn't imagine a better compromise between ride and handling. Take your car there now, for anything you need done.

I'm serious.
