Thanks for all of the compliments so far.

I pulled it back in the shop this evening to make some minor adjustments to the rear wheel housings because it rubbed a few times if I really threw the car around last night.
I used it to pick up parts tonight when I was done and with 2 brake rotors a set of pads and 2 gallons of oil in the back I had no issues.
That was my first real drive and I am super happy with everything at this point. It felt good to walk out of the parts store and see it parked there under the lights.
When I got back to the shop one of my friends hopped in for a spirited drive and the car was great.
I'm using the recommend damper settings and I'm not sure if I want to change them. I haven't put the trunk back together yet because I don't know if I'll be able to adjust the top of the dampers once I do. I'm going to drive it this weekend and figure out what final setting are going to be but right now it responds to everything really nicely.

 

Thanks for the pic and update.

 

[QUOTE=amesser325;1575876]great setup! what tires did you put on and what offset are those rims?

 

To be honest I don't remember the offset. 20" Style 128s are pretty rare so I jumped on them when I found a set for sale. I figured I would make them work, if not I would sell them.
I was able to fit them perfectly with no spacers and the fender work I mentioned. I would consider them the perfect offset for the given width and next time I have them off I'll check.
The tires are Yokohama S.drive
F:225/30R20
R:255/30R20
I would have liked to get a little better match on the tires but with 20s it is a challenge.
A 285/25R20 would have been a little better in the rear but hard to get and I probably would hit the fender since they would be pretty square on the rim.

so whosl all running the ISC suspension? holy crap does mine make tons of noise.

 

I am running them. I do have a noise now but it is a ball joint on my left side that has gone bad.

 

Define noise......?

I ordered mine in Feb 2.

Received them in Feb 12.

After a few wrong parts sent by ISC, I FINALLY got the right stuff and installed them this past weekend.

No noises. No bottoming out. No issues so far. Going to drive it for a while before verifying everything is perfect, then I will post up my review.......

 

I got so tired of waiting on alternatives for E60 coilovers i got a 2nd car, a E34 540 station wagon for half the price of the KW v3 coilovers. And its already lowered on new springs and shocks. lol

I asked if Island Road makes a sedan AWD version, iv gotten no response. Godspeed came out with a AWD coilover for the E60s but no one did a review yet, there was such a demand, stores cant more until like mid May. Not sure if it will fit a E61 one tho. The kit was initially for about 900 bucks.

 

Anything for a sedan will not fit the wagon. The rear suspension is completely different.

Now that the bugs are ironed out of the ISC kit, I am very happy with the results so far. Andrew was a pleasure to work with. Answering emails the same day and quickly resolving my parts issues.
