Drivetrain Suspension installed!
Spent 6 hours yesterday with a local guy that does SCCA chassis/suspension work. We installed:
Spax Coilovers
Hotchkis/H-Sport rear adjustable control arms
Hotchkis/H-Sport front and rear adjustable stabilizer bars
Hotchkis/H-Sport camber plates
in 6 hours.
alignment and corner weighing tomorrow, then off to track day. SSR Comps and sticky tires should make for lots of fun this weekend.

Very envious here!
Did you get all four arms replaced, or just the two lower rear control arms? I'm guessing, like me, just the bottom two. Curious to know as the top arms involve some other considerations...
Also, if feasible, kindly share the weight difference between the Spax vs. stock set-up. Thanks a bunch... and Enjoy!

I, too, did only the lower rear arms since I have DSC. One of these days they''ll make a bracket for the sensor so I can do the uppers.
As for weight, I didn't weigh each piece, but I'd guess the rear weight at the same, and fronts at ~3 # lighter per side.
