2011 GT suspension install.

Hey guys, it's been a while since I've last posted. I just moved back to the states from Okinawa, Japan and now living again in North Carolina. Anyway, while I was abroad in the Asian-Pacific, I have ordered quite a few bits of suspension parts. Now I finished installing them this past week.

Old set up on the left FRPP K springs and Koni STR T struts and the new suspension on the right Ground control coil overs.

Nice setup, is it the picture or is the rear sway bar not entirely centered on the axle tubes?

Thanks sir. It's not too bad, you can definitely feel the bumps, but I'm used to lowered cars.

It's just the angle of the picture.
