Yeah, that is my thought. I mean the designs are all the same. Sure there could be a quality difference but…
I am really not looking for low. I really just want a bit more spring rate. I already struggle with some driveways and parking lots with my front lip.
Yeah I get that. They sell AST HAS kit so I was wondering if they were just trying to steer me to something they make a profit on. I can understand as that is their business.
I could do the install myself but as I get older I have less and less interest in doing so both from a time and sore...
Any of you running this kit have issues? Set up an appointment to have mine installed at a local BMW specific shop I trust and they refused, citing “installation issues and lack of manufacturer support”.
I bought lightly used/like new and if I have to eat the cost of purchase so be it. I was...
In normal mode it’s fine. Can easily carry on a conversation and hear music. It opens up nicely when you mash the gas though. In Sport mode it’s noisy but not bad except if you’re cruising in top gear at 80 mph 2k rpm - then it drones. Add or drop revs and it’s fine. With a stock downpipe it...
It’s not nearly as loud as the Camaro across the street or the Mustang with straight pipes down the block. Is it a bit raucous on cold start? Yeah. But it tones down nicely and unless I rip on it doesn’t annoy the neighbors.
@jchadwell All good. Funny, I’m older but not
necessarily wiser. ?
I don’t get to stretch the car’ legs very often. This is the best I’ve got right now. Transitioning soon to track days…
I get it. Here is some info:
We are not SCCA affiliated and are a private club. There are both SCCA members and non members in our group and several are SCCA instructors and safety stewards. We have run for over 60 years with no serious incidents. The layout was discussed extensively and...
I purchased MSS Height Adjustable Springs. Before I do the install, are there any other parts I should purchase? I plan on a minimal drop, .5 - .75 inch max, due to driveway access issues. Car is my daily, but is autocrossed once a month and I am planning my first track day for later this...
Yeah, it was close but never seemed scary. Both cars were in a straight line so no worse than passing on normal count road. We are extremely limited on sites/space and we make the most of what we have. And yes a great deal of fun.
I love the idea of QuickJacks but tbh they are more than what I think I need. Had I invested in a set a few years ago I certainly would have gotten my money's worth, but I'm only getting older, and my desire to spend time on my back under the car is waning.
I can handle this exhaust/downpipe...
Installation postponed for today. I’ll make a jack purchase and do it in a few weeks. Have springs coming soon so I’ll just use another weekend. Disappointing but it is what is for today.
Thanks all.
