    2011 1LT 1.4l

    ride is a little bit stiff but not uncomfortable..needs aligned i am pretty sure we can only get the front camber adjusted haven't found much out about the rear.

    b&g's 1.6 in the front and 1.2 in the rear..this is what b&g says not positive i don't have the before measurements..but my most current measurement from the ground to the fender lip is about 26 9/16 on all corners.

    2. 1.4T
    3. SRiV
    4. Springs
    5. King springs
    6. 45mm F + R
    7. Nil Fitment Issues kit
    8. Firm, not too stiff, secures vehicle at speed
    9. Vibration in driveshafts due to CV joint angle change, only low speeds and low speed cornering do you notice it, but its irritating the crud out of me. If I take off uphill in first gear, the car vibrates and shakes ridiculously.



    This forum doesn't allow upload from mobile phone, will have to upload later

    lol i took the caps off because,when you run a autocross you cant have hubcaps on,they can possibly fall off
