I was getting jealous of how grounded to the ground the Camry is, so I made my car grounded to the ground with the help of some BC racing BR type coilovers. So far so good. Let it settle and then make some adjustments from there. They have a camber plate, should have adjusted it before hand but oh well, these things are way easier to take off than the stock ones, shouldn't be an issue.

My STi has coil overs, and I can’t help to think it has to be slower on public roads. Not enough bump and to little rebound I suppose.

Those are sick wheels! My car is white and I love the contrast of light car with dark wheels

Did you hollow out your grille (get rid of the plastic filled honeycomb?)

I have not, even with painting the crash bar behind it I don't think it looks good, but that's my opinion.

As do I. I can't stand how my stock silver looks on a silver car.

Thanks! I have a front splitter I might throw on today. I'm using Nitto NT01, not my daily setup, just threw them on since I was waiting on my wheel spacers to arrive for the stock wheels.

I assume that is your Track only rubber, how do you like it? How’s its performance? I’ve had a lot of tires that are amazing up until they lose traction, and you won’t know until its too late. It’s hard to find a setup that communicates when you’re losing grip

I just recently got them and have only used them once. Not ideal for auto-x but I wanted something that would be great on the track in my town, too. Also they're so damn loud, lol. I won’t be on the track til I upgrade the brakes. Brake fade is a nussiance in these things.

When I change my street tires I’ll probably go with the RE71’s. I hear great things about those.
