Been a couple minutes since I've updated this, I've had some of my other projects occupying my time. I got a set of quickjacks, actually, my wife did. I think she felt sorry for me with the floor jack and jack stands. And they work great! My car sits so low they won't slide under without assistance. It's too low, I decided it was time to raise it up. I installed a set of Founders Performance camber plates to get the spherical bushing and get away from the cheap SCS plates. Side affect was they lowered the front another inch and cats and trans scoop would drag going uphill out of southbend into oaktree at VIR. I ended up going with Steeda competition springs #555-8241 which are linear. I removed the Whiteline springs which have the same free height as the Steedas. Measured wire diameter:
Whiteline: F .543" R .479"
Steeda: F .620" R .420"
I left the rear swaybar in the lightest position and moved the front swaybar one hole lighter. I also moved the rear upper control arm to it's top mounting hole. It was in the lower hole for shorter intersect point for drag racing. I put my street tires back on it since tonight I'm going to Track Attack at Dominion Raceway, figured it was a cheap way to check out the track closest to me.
