Thumbs up Score 1 for Code3

Just had my adjustable sway links installed by Brandon at Code3 Performance. Great guy, great service, great product!

Now the C32 handles more like I thought it would from the factory. Turn in is much more immediate, without the "you want to go where?" response I used to get from the suspension.

I am running H&R coilovers and the point Brandon made about the sway bar not being able to do its job sufficiently when the car is lowered was spot on.

Great mod for the money!

How low are you?

The ends of my sway bars are very close to my control arms when I have the car jacked up on one side. Im almost certain its hit the control arm a few times when Ive had the car jacked up. I have an h&r front sway bar combined w/ my tein basics set pretty low and code3's end links - that are longer than the stock c32 end links even at its shortest setting. I couldn't even lengthen them out because I was worried I would hit the control arms while driving, but I havent hit the control arms yet w/ the end links set to the shortest setting.

I have a feeling those of ya who track the car MIGHT hit the control arm going around the track if you're anywhere near as low as I am.

i have the parts too...

I'm lowered with Renntech springs.. and I know this will just add to my ride and for the price, ease of install and No MORE NOISES from the end links..its the best part.

I will have Brandon install soon..

I can't remember the numbers but I'm definitely not slammed. Probably an overall lowering up front of 1.5-1.75 inches. There was plenty of room for my standard length links.

Brandon may chime in here about another set he's working on that might work for your situation...
