GTSPEC Group Buy (COMPLETE-CLOSED)

Not open for further replies.
Got 'em on yesterday. First impression was the ride actually felt a bit smoother rather than harsh. Like the whole ride was more solid and the suspension was doing it's job better at taking all of the bumps. Through turns and corners it was just as I expected, tighter. Less body roll and more confidence. Overall a good buy!
Thanks for the group buy :iS:! I can't wait for the front ones.
 
Nothing but great reviews for the bars.....glad that Z1 was able to supply these to us.:top:
 
that was easy... got scared with the marking of bolts and lack of help but once i took one bolt off it all made sense... 30minutes including making a breaker bar (small arms)

heres my crappy photo...

lol, just remembered your post about quiting the job with the lift.

So we got Stillens, Nismos, Customs, OEMs, Greddy. Need fxlr8s HKS pics. :biggrin:
 
Nice pictures everyone:xd:!

I am glad to see that almost everyone has received their packages so far without any major issues and I am also glad to hear that the majority of you are very pleased with your purchases. Thanks for allowing us to be able to serve this forum and to be a part of your community.

Enjoy them in good health! :top:

no rattling?

No rattling that I heard yet. I did drive around with the windows up and radio off. I haven't encountered large pot holes and really uneven roads yet. I did notice the paint on the GT brace is a bit scuffed up, where it is the closest to the exhaust pipe. I believe at some point it has been touching, but not enough to rattle or cause any noticeable sounds. I'll post follow ups if it does happen.

Also you might try putting a little header wrap around that section of exhaust. Or you can also try using this http://www.jegs.com/i/Thermo+Tec/893/13500/10002/-1/750869 which has adhesive on one side so you can stick it on the gtspec bar... I actually have a big roll of this stuff and can send you a little strip if you wish.

Thanks. I really appreciate that. I'll be happy to pay for 2 small strips of it. I'll IM you.

As for the rest with Stillen exhaust. The lower tie bar will go on with a bit of force (without mods to the exhaust). I have a feeling with a strip of the termal wrap, you can just install the bar without modding the exhaust. I think the exhaust pipe and the tie bar rest tightly enough with each other that it won't cause any rattling sound. But I don't know if it'll cause any unwanted vibrations thru the floor boards. My suggest is to install the bars first without any mods to the exhaust. If unwanted sounds or vibrations do arise, then make adjustments. If I get to do it over again, that's what I would try first.
