Sweet. Polar is my favourite color.

I'm just about to install my PSS9's. I want my car slightly higher than yours. Can you post your settings please.

Sure, firmness is on 2, it is rather ruff but I track my car a lot. I also kind of like the stiff race car feel.

Ride height is 25 1/4 inches in the rear and 25 1/2 up front.

Beautiful car 45otto! One thing that I would check though, is your ride height in the rear. As a general rule, the car should have a slight rise (about 1 degree or so) so that the back is higher than the front. Have you had it aligned and corner balanced? The corner balancing would likely help dictate a better front to rear balance, which I will guess would involve raising the rear slightly. The other issue, which has been raised many times on this board, is the problems related to the bump stops on the PSS-9's when a car is lowered as much as yours appears to be lowered. (BTW, my carĂ¢â‚¬â„¢s front looks to be about the same height as yours.) Raising the rear will help give you a little more suspension travel to work with, before you start banging off the bumps stops. Anyway, just a thought. As I said, the car looks great! I hope that you enjoy driving it!

Car looks sweet. I do agree with Bob..raise the rear about 1/2" and it'll be purrrrrrfect.
