Got some fun stuff to install this evening!!!

smokum · 05-18-2013, 03:25 PM

That looks like some fun. I was looking at the BMR stuff myself. I also have had some good luck with the strange components on some of my other cars in the past. Nice weekend project.

The new stuff BMR is coming out with is freaking awesome.

Got everything installed....very pleased, no major headaches, but it does take a while, especially by yourself. You'll need a die grinder to get the upper shock mounts to fit. Haven't had a chance to drive it yet, so I can't really give any "real" feedback, but I will eventually. Can't wait to get the matching Strange Engineering Front Coilovers too!!!

Nice looking setup Keith ! Looking forward to hearing your review .

Those are pretty damn sexy...

JDP Sales · 05-20-2013, 06:56 PM

Looks pretty sweet! Super easy adjustments on those coilovers!

Best regards,

Triple Adjustable? If you mean compression, rebound, and height....then yes! They are Strange Engineering p/n S5003. You MUST use the lower control arms shown because the coilovers are significantly shorter than OEM. BMR sells this whole set-up as a kit....more info here:

Everything looks good Keith! Let me know how you like it once you get some miles on the setup.

Those coil-overs are made by Strange Engineering and are considered to be double adjustable (rebound and compression) but these coil-overs will also allow you to adjust the ride height in the rear.

The bolt for the sway bar, is it not torqued down or is it just too short by design.
