Understood, I meant deciding on a different suspension during the planning stages.

Planning stages - what's that? You must mean where I was going to spend a weekend getting this driver on the road LOL!

But absolutely. Too many examples of that during this build - my bad and we correct as we go. Almost want to do it over just to see how it CAN be done LOL. But it's all good and we're getting closer.

Can't wait to see your car in person - looks great!

stance. Most companies running coil overs are using a 5 inch stroke shock. That should give 2.5 compression and droop or 3/2...which is not much. Not sure I would want to go any shorter on the shock just from a bottoming/ride standpoint. Most are running between 250-275 rear spring. If you are going for ride comfort the 200 should be great, but I bet you will have a bottoming problem.

With all that being said....damn you car looks good!
