[QUOTE="CJHAMIL, post: 16995210, member: 131737"] Got to take the car out for the first time. It is a completely different car. No more chassis twist or roll when cornering and was surprisingly gentle to drive. My main concern was that I over did it with the combo of Stifflers chassis bracing and the delrin bushings. I am very pleased with how comfortable of a ride it is. I have not adjusted the rebound or compression on the KW V3 coilovers but I believe I will leave them alone. The brakes were the big highlight. Normal braking is smooth and brings the car to a safe stop. However, if you put your foot down the brakes bite very hard and will make you kiss the windshield with your face. This 14" Brembo GT BBK and FTBR 13" rear rotors makes my old Cobra R setup that had StopTech cryo rotors, Hawk HPS pads and Russell pads look bad. Do not it mistaken that old setup was great and way better than stock but this new setup is that good. I also cannot explain how ridiculous this brake setup looks in person. I also did not get any weird pops, creeks, squeaks or other unwanted noise. Yes, there is more stiffness than before and way less give than before. However, I fine the benefits far out weigh that extra stiffness. The car points and moves as one unit now which is goal I had. I know getting the 94 to 04 Mustang chassis to feel like an era equivalent sports car like a C5 or C6 Corvette is not 100% possible but I am very thrilled with the results as I am about 95% of the way there in terms of sportscar feel.
