I went with the super pro... atleast they look nice. No word on performance as my car is out of commission. LOL

I don't like that the SuperPro bushing is still that...a bushing. I would prefer something hard mounted (pillow ball) which really only leaves me with Perrin... The car is not a daily, so NVH be damned.

I used to drive a car with KW Var 2's so I know what you mean on the NVH. I would try escalating the issue within Whiteline, if you can. You have all the documentation/pics you need to prove a quality break down somewhere down the line.

I love all my SuperPro stuff...never had any fitment or quality issues either. I do understand the want for a hard mount though.

I pressed the ALK in with a socket that may have had a sharp edge... But, whatever. No damage and it's not visible.

Aside from the anti-seize and bushing grease that is everywhere, I'm happy with how the front end turned out. Went with POR15 instead of the eastwood chassis paint that I used in the rear. I'm 100% rust free (excl. rotors) and it'll stay that way for a long time.

VooDoo13 rear LCAs showed up, and am in the process of painting them. Gorgeous pieces of work.

Oh man. Their lcas are awesome. Anodized green ����❤❤

Or, blasted and painted black

 

[awenthol]

Got the glue cleaned off, but my drill bits are no match for the spot welds...going to have to buy some better tools.

 

[awenthol]

No turning back now...(blurry like always)

 

[Joebie]

Are you just resealing it? Seam welding?

Radiator for my air to water charge air cooler is going ~midway...clearing it out to put in scoops and flat trunk.

Ohhhh!!!! Makes sense now. :tup:

 

[awenthol]

Toe arms showed, and I got them painted (and anti-seized, hence the mess)

LCAs painted (a little rough but don't care, as long as they're protected)

Couldn't help myself...the brake booster was the last rubber hose on the car, so I had to get rid of it. -AN line + one-way valve

 

[awenthol]

Something I hadn't considered with the added caster...

 

[Joebie]

oh... yeah. That's pretty far forward. :crying:

 

[awenthol]

Added a support that will (eventually) connect the strut tops (a little extra reinforcement)...then chopped out the main rear crossmember. This will get beefed up, a lot. Looks like the radiator is going to have to go fairly far back, just because the exhaust and rear subframe are in the way.

 

[CNY_STI]

Looks like SuperPro toe's and Voodoo LCA's

I have both and they fit great, as well as a huge upgrade over stock. I have been talking with Voodoo about trying to get some trailing arms. (They make BRZ/VA STi ones...GR ones are slightly longer)

 

[awenthol]

I'm behind on fab pics, will take some at some point. Rear crossmember is in and everything from it "forward" is welded and painted. Was waiting for fans to show, so I know how to build out the enclosure...and then they did. Cute little guys.

Interior is almost back together. I stripped out gauges to redo wiring (connectors in more convenient locations and tie sensors into factory harness).

Rear subframe is back under the car--ebrake slack adjusted, sensors plugged in, bolts torqued, and started working on bleeding brakes

I like the fact you're using fans on your intercooler... you're a genious.

(I think it's time I hook up my fans to my intercooler, they've been sitting on my shelf for months)

Not sure I see the benefit of putting fans on an air to air?
