2011 5.0 with heavy suspension mods

Hi -- First post, but long time lurker. Here is my 2011 Sterling 5.0, Premium, Brembo, 3:73, with 600 miles on the clock!

Isn't it amazing how much better the Brembo 19" wheels look with the fender gap closed down? I was planning on prioritizing RTR wheels, but now they've dropped to the end of the list.

Ride is firm and damped. Zero squeeks, zero rub, perfect alignment specs. The only thing noticeable is the very faint gear whine transmitted through the LCAs. The new BMR LCA brackets are designed so the axle weights that come with the 3:73s do not need to be removed.

Mods to date:
  • Eibach Pro Street S Coilovers
  • Maximum Motorsports Camber Plates
  • BMR Adjustable Panhard Bar
  • BMR Panhard Chassis Brace
  • BMR Billet Lower Control Arms
  • BMR LCA Relocation Brackets (Welded)
  • BMR Rear Swaybar (red) with Billet Drop Links (Ordered - due 4/8)
  • BMR Front Adjustable (red) (Ordered - due 4/8)
  • FRPP GT500 Axle-Backs
  • CJ Pony Parts 2" dia. "Cue-Ball" shift **** white w/ black 6-spd etching (Ordered - Waiting)
  • Lloyd Rubbertite floor mats (Ordered - due 4/6)

Future Mods (in order of priority)
  • BMR Front control arms (available May/June 2011)
  • Boss/GTCS front facia & splitter
  • Roush Grille
  • FRPP Supercharger
  • Wheels (?)
