I am, thanks. Back injections are a piece of cake. I was back on my feet ~2 hours after the procedure. It's the closest you can get to surgery without being cut open.

LOL, that's the after picture, it doesn't look shiny because the lighting of the garage. Here's another one I took under the sun, not the best shot but it def looks shiny in real.

I like it much better than the spray-foam.

Went for a quick drive to check the swaybars. It was only 13°c today so I couldn't get on it too hard. My tires are too slick at that temp. What I did notice was an overall tightness (for lack of a better word), initial turn in was quicker (response). I'll have to wait for the temps to get back up before I really give them a test.

My suspension set-up,
  • Stock wheels/tires
  • Swift springs
  • Whiteline front swaybar - soft setting
  • Whiteline rear swaybar with endlinks - middle setting
  • Alignment - custom spec (not factory numbers)

Nice setup. You may want to think about stiffer sway bar settings in front than rear -- quicker turn-in and less oversteer results. I hope this makes sense. It has been a long day of writing for me and I am a bit punchy.

on the stiffer swaybar setting on the front. especially for lowered cars that are already starting at near outside of suspension geometry.

no z action today, mr. onzedge? i can understand with rain.. hope it clears up for you soon.
