Hello, I just wanted to give a update on the install of my Full Tilt Boogie Racing FT 1350M, FT 5001 and FT 1860 along with H&R Race Springs. Bruce from FTBR is installing everything (since I live 20 minutes from his shop)
Here is a link to the original thread: http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/suspension-modifications-211/919537-cobra-suspension-upgrades.html
Bruce called me this past week and said I could come in snap some pictures and see the progress of the install. I went into FTBR Saturday, March 23rd and Bruce spent about 45 minutes with me explaining everything that had been done. I could not be happier with the help that Bruce has given me. He has texted/called me to update status through the install process. The car will be done this week and I plan to pick up the car this weekend if the weather here in the Milwaukee area is nice.
While checking the progress out of the install, Bruce pointed out to me that I needed new rear pads and said he would turn my stock rotors and install new pads when he put the IRS back together. I had planned on doing a front and rear brake upgrade eventually, so after talking with Bruce about Brake options, I decided to buy Bruce's 13 inch rear brake upgrade kit and a 14 inch 4 piston Brembo kit for the front from Bruce. The 14 inch Brembo kit includes Brembo calipers and Bruces 2 piece FTBR rotors. The 13 inch kit also has the FTBR rotors. Bruce also is ordering up front and rear SS lines for the brakes.
Bruce is going to install the 13 inch rear upgrade while he puts the IRS together and he ordered me the front Brembo kit (which will arive in 2-3 weeks)
Bruce also looked over the front suspension of the car and made sure that everything was in good condition (and it was)
As I mentioned earlier, I could not be happier with the communication from Bruce and the overall level of customer service he has provided! Bruce did not just install the FTBR kit and get my car out the door; he took the time to look over the entire suspension and brakes to make sure that everything on the cobra was healthy and most importantly, safe for driving.
Here are some pics and I will post after I get the cobra back and drive it around to give a before and after comparison:
