Ok, I found the SPS from wevo. Should there be any problem with the coilovers, or would it make a fine compliment??
thx.

I'm confused. Wouldn't the 935 type suspension set up make more sense for a coilover car vs. Wevo SPS.



vs.

you are correct: the erp 935 rear spring plate replacements would be more effective (and lighter) to use than the SPS parts

The coil overs replace the torsion bars and spring plates, so you won't use the SPS stuff & coil overs. The SPS would be a nice alternative to coil overs if you want to go that direction. If your going to use coil overs you could use a stock spring plate or the ERP 935 style spring plates. Another choice if your going the coil over direction is the Fox Shox system by SRP.

Upload them to Pelican when you write the post, so they don't disappear like all your photos on the first page have.

thanks all!!
here is a video of last week, at the newly redone Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez vs a GT3

https://youtu.be/e0Zm4epOCxc

with a scary ending

I don't have much info on the wheels, apart from being 16 inch and different offset than the front ones.
