I like it a lot, its been everything I was hoping for. I have the fronts set at 3 and the rears set at 4. A very solid ride by yet still very comfortable. I was worried about rubbing issues since I'm running 305's. But it doesn't rub at all. The floating feeling in the front is all gone. Overall very happy with the setup.

Looks great!

What is your current ride height for front and rear?

I just installed mine too and its at 25 3/4 all around...Shocks set at 4/5, but thinking of going down to 3/4 as well...

My front is set at 25 1/2 and the rear is at 25 1/16, close to GT3 ride height.

Congrats Gobie. Beautiful car. I have my PSS-9's at two on all four corners. Originally started 3 and 4 and found the ride too soft and too much body roll. At 2 there is little or no roll and the ride is just right.

My ride height is 25 3/16 front and 25 rear. Be careful with exiting driveways and parking lots. My rear will bottom out unless I do the crocodile walk and very slowly. Hassle or not I can't imagine my car any higher than it is right now.

Congrats. Love the Cargraphic wheels.

I got it installed at Roger Kraus Racing in Castro Valley. He's really great, and I would recommend them. He charged me $900 even for the install, aligment and corner weight.

Looks great.

Have you noticed much change in the handling etc, apart from being just a "less floaty" ride?

Have you run into any front end scraping problems...driveways, gas stations, etc.?

IMHO, i think 3/4 setting is too tight unless you are running some sticky 18's. i think the car would hook up better and not have the rear break loose so easy with a 4/5 or 5/6 for non-turbo's or 5/6 for turbo setting. i drove the turbo with a 3/4 setting with 19's and the tires were breaking loose. the 5/6 setup on the turbo hooked up really well with a little sway.
