Might be time for a harness bar and some 5 points in your car.
Thanks bud.

The bracket I bought separate. They are quite nice. The seats took 1/2 an hour to install.

I may get the harness's, but I dont want a harness bar in the car... to much weight . I need to look into the harness's and see if I can use them with just the seats.

Give me a call, I'l get you some Impact Racing 5 points. I think the bar might be a good idea. Just get a cf trunk and it would be an even swap.

harness bar with 5 points total weight - cf trunk weight savings = no weight gain for your car

^^I'm Jealous!

Tim, I think your missing something to put those springs on. Maybe you should ship them up to me to test them out for you.

I think if you guys had a harness bar and 5 point belts you would sneak by a lot more quick tech glances at the track.

I also think you would end up being about the same weight. Remember, when you put in the harnesses you can loose the stock seat belts.

I got the coils and springs installed and DAMN the car is high with the recommended settings it looked like a Carmaro that was raking . I lowered the car back down in the rear to where they were originally and its still high. I did notice there is an adjustment on the very bottom of the shock body... maybe thats what I need to adjust? I'll figure it out!

I will try to adjust everything up tommarrow when I put on my tires

Congrats on the new springs Jeff. I was talking to Indy last night while I was installing mine. Mine measured only about 1/2 inch shorter than the 13,000 miler's we were using. They were supposed to be 1 inch shorter, but 13,000 miles was beginning to show the 'sag' factor. I adjusted mine up only about 1/2 of what I expected. The linear rate of these springs is going to make it easier to dial in.

Front passenger installed:

Jeff, install the spring with the spring seat just touching the spring and then give it one full turn. That is a good place to start. The ride height is adjusted from the lowest point and jam nut.

Thanks Tom and Dave. I have the rears set at 7 1/2in right now. They where at 8 1/2. The fronts are at stock level now.

But thanks for the heads up you 2. But like I said, I will play with it more tommarrow when I do the tires. I just got off the phone with Indy, I was scared that maybe adusting them to low "might" in some way shape or form cause the spring to not work how they where designed?

Dave the ride height is adjusted at the lock ring at the very bottom of the strut and not at the bottom of the spring. If you look at Toms posted pic, I am talking about next to where the brake fitting is ... sorry I just never installed coils like this before
