How do the wheels and tires fit? Any rubbing or fender modifications to get them to work? If you are upgrading to the Volks I might be interested in buying the Sportmax rims and tires off of you.
Great looking car and Speed Ventures seem to be a great group of guys.

Mazdacomp used to sell the adjustable tension rods out of their catalog. I have a set of them along with the adjustable LCAs that I bought from kenn chan that came with the set of SSR wheels he sold me. I don't know if Mazdacomp still sells the tension rods, but you have to show proof that you raced in at least 2 sanctioned races to be able to buy from them. Their tension rods are different than the ones shown in the pics. They don't look that hard to make, which I suspect is what they do from the stock tension rods.

update update
HSF level up. now with Kia Sportage's 4.4 final drive was 4.0 from gsl-se. took it to offroad shop to install... they dont even clue what kind of car is it Why? because they have a lot of experience then regualr of shop i do have repair manual too . my current diff have bad bearing at pinon and the noise really drive you crazy!!!! i have to wear a ear plug believe me is worse then my PP FC, i could install it my self, but lock of tool here change my mind
also switch new tires 195/50/15 Toyo R1R. yes i know it wont be sticker then 225/45/15 NT01, but what can you do if you cant have choice. i was plan to get Dunlop Z1 but are out of stock.... and yokahama and brightstore is way over price here is like 2-3 time more compare in usa. aleast the R1R is like state price. with free install too since owner of tire shop admire my car sprit .
Going to change a rear ride hight tomorrow. now is sitting on eibach coil spring, the one design to be cut. but i did not cut any coil yet so the car sit pretty hight make it kind da hard to drive in bumppy track here. any body can give a suggestion. i know i should bought a book from gforce... but now live over sea have some ............... of course in rule of thumb is to have rear ride hight sit slighly lower the front. now my current ride hight the rear is higher then front. and with rear sway bar too ( going to took that out this time) pleast let me know
thanks for ur time
plan to do a track testing this friday if no rain...........

Have you considered adjustable perches for the rear? Allows height adjustment, plus you choose what spring rate you want. This is what I'm using, and it is a very slick setup.

More update ,
Finally get to install my custom build coilover and big brake kit
with custom made negative camber RCA I think i am first one ever did this on first gen
GSL-se pads compare to my new billet 4 piston caliper's pads
that is insaneof -8 camber in the pic!!. BTW i re adj camber back to -3.5
what you cant see in the pic is 2 peace rotor
First driving imperssion.
althought this shock come with 12kg of spring rate. the ride feel on street is pretty firm but not harsh as you might expect
as new brake. the brake feel become much better require less pedeal pressure to stop the car. since on my car i already took out
brake booster. so this is pretty important
as for track testing. will need to wait until next week to find out
