: Torqued Autosports does it's first extreme track install on G8!

first I have to say that nothing really surprised me except the front strut mounts


now keep in mind this car has 1700 miles on it and has never seen severe track duty

the front mounts were collapsed 4mm with abnormal wear marks on the edges

we lowered this car to the extreme for asthetics and performance

it sits at 609mm front and 594 mm rear

we had a set of wheels made for my personal gto and wanted to see if they would fit this car and look good

the side wall on the tire is too small but overall the wheels look fantastic on the car

so here are the pics

Car looks good. Real good. That mount looks worse than mine did during my partial Track II install but I didn't have more than about 1000 miles on mine at the time, early June. Rocksand Racing has my remaining parts now and when Frank sets a date, I will have those nice red sway bars too.

Mike,

The car looks fierce. Have you played with the sway bar settings yet?

What are you guys using as reference points for ride height?

we measure from the bottom of the rim to the lower edge of the fender

Those rims look like they were made for the car! What are the specs on them if you don't mind me asking?

Mike
