from PFC, a few more details on their rotor:



1) High Carbon Alloy with copper and molybdenum for high temperature strength and durability.

2) Vanes turned OD and ID for balance to reduce thermal warping and vibration.

3) Runout less than .001 inches, reducing Pulsation and Vibration

4) Thickness variation less than .0003 inches reduces Pulsation and Vibration.

5) 47 or more vanes for superior thermal capacity

6) Aircraft quality heat treated for micro structure alignment and durability.

7) Surface finish less than .7 microns.

8) 100% measured and inspected to meet tolerance specifications.

Most of the improvement in the handling department come from the spring rates, which are increased considerably over stock. Just had our guy get back from a track day with JUST Swift springs and the Whiteline bumpsteer correction kit. Car was transformed from stock.....

Springs that better match the stock dampers can make a world of difference. Ride quality is not sacrificed, Swift did their homework on these.

Here is my review from the suspension section. I love these Springs! Thanks GTWORX

Last week I installed the Swift springs, whiteline bump steer correction kit and trailing arm bushings on my 03 GSR. I was hesitant to do springs but I am so happy that I did. These spring rates (269lbs/inch front 319lbs/inch rear) seem to be a better match for the dampers than stock. Not only does the car become much more civilized on the road, it also greatly reduces body roll. The drop is perfect for my setup (35mm front 20mm rear). No problem with parking lots and such even with my splitter (for now). I tracked the car at Pocono's North course last week and it handled like it was on rails. No bump steer at all and the car was better able to communicate with me without the stock body roll. I ran my hotchkis sway bar on full stiff and the car felt completly nuetral. I thought that I may have an oversteer problem after the springs, but I was wrong. Overall I am very happy with the setup. Big thanks to Andrew at GTWORX for getting me all of the parts so quick!

How exactly in Suspension Geometry/Mechanics terms do the whiteline bushings help prevent bumpsteer?

Ordered. Can't wait to get them!


Any recommendations for a camber kit? I'm new to Evo's/Mitsu's and not sure if this is needed or not.

Thanks again,
Brent

No camber kit needed. If your looking to auto-x or do some track days, some camber plates would be nice, but not necessary. Do get an alignment after installing the springs though.
