I'm not sure yet. I am seeing about carrying them now so I will know soon. Hopefully will be able to order them still through me afterwards!

How many more orders are necessary for the groupbuy?

Going with 255 non stagg on stock suspension for now. This wont make the car understeer will it? Hate understeer! Still depating on HKS coils or just taking the KWs off my turbo car and getting stiffer rates for them. I thought they would be stiffer when I ordered them. They seem soft to me even at one sweep from full stiff on compression. I saw rub marks on the inside of the front fenders. Not the edge as mine are rolled flat but the top of the fender.

We have reached the amount needed. Order is going to take 3-4 weeks to be shipping out. Can order still however if by today or tomorrow the latest. Going to go into production I believe starting next week.
Non staggered tire setup will usually cause the car to have more oversteer than a staggered setup. Adding a front sway bar can balance it back out. It is adjustable as well so you can find the setting you best like.

Have the cluncking noises been addressed or this something people learn to deal with?

I don't have noise and I use McMaster parts.

I have the "upgraded" endlinks, and they started to clunk after a few months. Its just something I've learned to deal with.

I'm assuming that this bar will help me with this rear left tire even in the soft setting

I have found the bar to give great balance and stability to the car. I have it set to full soft with KW CS with 12KG swift springs all around and 255-40-17 all around and no aero. I tried medium and preferred the full soft decidedly. Excellent bar.
15 lbs is a decent amount of weight. If most people that go to the track leave it on the soft setting, how does this compare with the Eibach (which is lower pricing and similar to stock)? (Not trying to hijack this thread, just wanting to stir up some debate...I might be interested in one of these Saners). The specs for the Eibach are:

Front: 32mm Adjustable (HOLLOW)

* Pos.1 - 65 N/mm (368lbs/in)
* Pos.2 - 73 N/mm (416lbs/in)
* Weight - 4.8kg (10.6lbs.)

Obviously not quite as stiff even at setting 2, but I am sure it would be a big improvement over stock?

It would certainly be an improvement, I just don't think it would be enough for me when I finally go 255 square. With stock tire stagger...I think it would probably be great.

Got mine 3 months ago with the "new" endlinks. They were quiet for the first month, but now they are loud as hell. Every bump you touch makes noise. But I wouldn't ever get rid of this FSB. The car is so planted and turn in feels amazing. There is no lift in the rear. You feel more confident on the track. Great buy, just endlinks suck.
