still trying to get to it. the LCA would need to be converted tocoilover, which we might do as well and ditch the pocketed coil. I can probable get the camber correction first, then VIP will be more involved.

just the front still. The rear we are waiting to get the IS-F kits released before we start another development. If you are interesting in placing an order, we can develop a 4 corner kit.

Still on the side burner. Might have the n1 racecar in a few weeks so I will see if we can knock it out then.

That'd be awesome. I guess them being on the side burner is better than on the back lol. Waiting for these before I go with new tires.

We have opened our preorder as well and we will have both upper links with the same options we have on the 3GS which is camber correction or negative camber. The #2 arms will eventually get polyurethane bushings. We should be able to support a wider range of adjustment on this arm in our version.
Thanks Mike

bucanero, the front LCA bushing is common with the 2IS and we have proven it to be the primary cause of tire wear. If more negative camber is desired we already have a custom design we can use.
