Nice writeup. Appreciate the solid info.

 

Do you have a final part number and where you got the adjustable end links from?

I'm currently on non sport and thinking about just lowering the car to sport height. I noticed 2 part numbers for the rear end links.

Non sport: 33506781540
Sport w\ARS: 33506781537

Do you think the sport version would work for mine? I'm guessing it's probably shorter than the non-sport end link.

 

You'll have to measure once suspension has been put in..Turner motorsports has a chart of all lengths find the one that best suits you application and order them. Call them to make sure they stock it!

Are you doing spring only or new strut and spring..If its a factory strut spring you shouldnt need them

 

Which part numbers did you end up getting? I'll most likely mirror your setup. I'm planning on going with KW coils (V2 or V3).

Besides, how would you measure what lenght you need? With the car jacked up, won't that give you a wrong measurement than with the car on all four wheels?

 

Mine were the 240mm ones(TSU9912A70). To measure car must be on the ground "rhino ramps" take a tape measure and measure the hole where the top of the link mounts then position the sway bar so it sits neutral (pretty much go all the way down feel it bind, go all the way up and feel it bind then go middle from there). Once middle is found place a stand underneath so it doesn't move then measure center to center of each hole

 

Sweet dude THANKS! Which ones did you use for the rears?

 

they dont make rears... to short use oem

 

Just for clarification, since the stock end links are 12 inches (300mm), I would have to purchase a longer end link (greater than 300 mm) if I lower my car.... correct? I assume this because by lowering my car, the top mount for the end link is being moved further away from the sway bar.

 

Shorter. Look at pics on page 2 for reference.

 

Lowering in the sense your changing to coilovers then you'll need shorter ones. Thanks JGT
