Default Cobb Stage 1 Suspension, Brakes installed

Installed at Curry's auto in Northern Virgina. i would highly recomend this shop to anyone.

The Cobb stage 1 suspension is nice, all cusco stuff. I haven't had a chance to put it through its paces.. but the initial impression is that it flattnes out the high speed corners, and i could have sworn i felt Oversteer in one tight corner (i have teh rear adjustable set on the middel firmness)

the stage 1 brakes are nice, with sheathed ss brake lines and Street pads that brough me down from about 70 very nicely, again.. i haven't pushed them hard but they feel Very secure.

ill update this as i drive the rex harder.

Looks like this was posted almost a year ago. I am interested in the Cobb stage 1 suspension upgrade, and the stage 2 brake kit.

If you are still around, how about an update?

I'm also interested in the Cobb Stage 1 kit for my 2002 2.5 RS. Does anyone have any experience with it? Are the pads more designed for the track, or are they usable for the street as well (ie cold braking abilities, etc.)?

Thanks!

Dude bad timing? Didn't you hear? The original post is over 4 years old but it's been all over the news. His new brake setup failed and he drive right off a highway overpass and landed on a school bus. Sadly, the driver and the 40 senior citizens inside the bus all died. Have some tact, man.
