thanks and surprisingly it rarely rubs we rolled my backs and they dont rub but my front rubs under moderate cornering so we will have to give it a slight roll as well. That and i need to get some new endlinks my front right keeps popping whenever i hit a bump now.

yea it took a long time adjusting the car taking the wheels on and off to get it adjusted perfectly but now that the height is set im so happy with it. Now i just have to play with my dampening trying to get the rebound set right the fronts are of i just have to turn the rear down some a lil too much bounce

I'm running k sports I've got more room to go gown in the rear but the fronts are pretty much maxed. s*** I has to remove one of the locking nuts to even get the front that low. The rims are 18x8 w/ 215/35/18 tires

Actually no unless I do a slim tire on a 17 which I really don't like on 17's. These rims with 35's are shorter in height then my 17's w/ 45 series tires. If that makes and sense
im running 205/40/17 on my racing harts right now "really good deal i got on em" and its not bad at all. not ideal since i have no rim protection whatsoever and dodge parallel parking like the plague cause i still dont have a pass mirror, but 215/40 isn't a bad size to consider.

Kind of a stupid question... do we have to torque the nuts / bolts / whatever that holds down the front strut tower bar? I just got a Vibrant to replace my stock one and it looks pretty straight forward, but I don't want it flying off... lol.

make sure its good and firm basically, I used a ratchet and leaned on it. Calibrated torque elbow FTW.

all mods must go. Still debating on whether to pull out the FMIC (and SSQV v3) and Spool drop springs. Other than that if I have it... you should buy it.
See the links in my sig for various parts.

Vibrant strut bar installation complete. I don't want to take any pictures right now though, cause my car looks like death. Needs a wash bad.

Sold my F/IC today.
Got my new o2 sensor in, need to get a MAF. Car starts up and idles fine... with the MAF unplugged lol. No throttle reponse, and a lean idle, the second I plug in the MAF, its pegged out rich, bogging, and dies out.
Harumph!
