I like it. If you do get over 950 once this thing is reassembled then you may have to go to "GT2-1K".

This GT2 is getting nothing but the best, so for the suspension we decided to upgrade to our new Champion Motorsport adjustable rear upper links (dogbones), rear adjustable toe-steer arm, adjustable tie-rod, and we'll be adding our new adjustable caster arms as well.







Stay tuned for more updates throughout the day....
How much is this kit, rear upper links, toe steer arms, tie rod,s, caster amrs?

Nothing really to report. The customer has had the car back in his possession for over a year. It's been back to our shop for the occasional oil change or brake flush, but that's about it. Here's a dyno from one of the final programs.
