Default Funny...I drove my S4 before I sold it, and the Tracksports actually seemed more comfortable

than my TL on the highway imperfections. I was surprised...the shocks took the edge off some of the bad roads. Of course this was with OEM 17's on both cars. Haven't driven any of the tracksport kits with higher mileage though. Mine only have ~7K on the fronts, and ~15K on the rear shocks.

Default Well, in fairness, Rob's are the older Konis (too soft) and are blown..

his car porpoises REALLY bad on bumpy roads. It's REALLY firm on choppy roads. on the highway, it's not too bad..

Though now that I think of it, the last time I drove it, he had the springs cranked WAY up for ground clearance, and I think he preloaded the springs into a whole new level of stiff.

As I recall, they were great when new.

Default I might.. maybe once this year.. hand the car off to some others like NoNonsense..

for the most part I won't track the car until I can afford some sort of "hit" at the track, be it engine failure or accident.

Default Centerforce Dual friction is holding.. but I'm only (for the most part) boostig 15psi

which is not enough to break the grip. I will be doing the 034 clutch soon and selling off the stock FW and Centerforce.

Default Don't do it.. Get a track **** or something...

I dislike the idea of tracking one's daily driver intensely.

Default If you're looking at around $1k, consider our Vogtland kit

Priced right at $1088.95 they'll offer a great combination for either the street or track.

KONI coilovers/Stasis SS are fine for daily driving. A bit soft for any performance driving. The Vmaxx will be even softer.
