    So yes, the car definitely has more vibrations when the car has just been started or is cold, but when the car warms up, you'll notice very little difference in vibration from start when you focus on it.

    So a quick update, the damper brackets have been sent out for Tig welding as my welder has been placed on back order for another 2 months. Also, my material provider was able to suggest a high nickel content stainless steel that would be better suited for the brackets, and as thus the material change has been made over! The material is of course more expensive but is balanced out in saving on paint/powdercoating. The details have been changed in the original post to reflect this.

    Almost there! So get your orders in! I'd love for you guys to feel the way this damper kit improves the way your car drives! Soooo amazing.

    Yup, we're getting near that time! Just waiting for the welding shop to finish the brackets. I guess I have to add you to the buy list then?

    Anyone else want on? I'll be waiting till the 30 day timeline fully lapses so you guys get the best chance of getting the discount. Then considering that I'm off the next weekend for competition, I'll be filling the orders starting the next week and shipping out!

    No stickers yet though. My brother and his print company are slacking.

    Pictures! Note that the dampers available with the kit will be silver however. Custom colours may be ordered for $10.

    That's actually a pretty solid looking rig. Can't wait to see how your lap times improve.

    Well many changes have been made to the car since last season, so it'll be hard to quantify it's worth. But the car sure does feel more predictable and solid, so it has done it's fair share!

    Rival, what strut tower bar do you have? I'd like to find a cheaper alternative to the Ultra Racing unit.

    It's an old discontinued GAB unit for an 80'S Mazda 323 GTX.
