ATE Superblue 5.1 (I run this fluid and do tracking, so for you it would be plenty) If you do 1/4 the you don't even need better braking fluid :P

Another option is Motul 600

good old Crappy Tire fluid for me and never had any problems just get the one special for ford.

Parts arriving early for a change. Was expecting the Shocks to come in next week or the week after... but lo and behold they came in yesterday!





All parts are here and ready to rock with a week off from work...

Install begins Sunday!

Nice dude, have fun :)

End of day one.

Pretty much spent the day getting parts, tools and supplies to the garage I'm working in. Had enough time to get the drivers rear done and install the swaybar.

One problem tho, the Tokico D-spec shocks are bigger and don't fit with the SPC rear camber arms... Going to try to see if we can fab a plate to fix the problem.

Sitting in the garage before work begins.


Stock vs D-spec shocks


Stock rear swaybar vs Eibach 25mm bar.


Installation of the rear camber arms and HTPerformance toe arms


Should have the rear fixed tomorrow and will be starting to rip up the front.

End of day 3 (no day 2 cause I was f***ed up:) )

Front end is now completely done except new brake lines. Swaybar, cross brace, shocks, camber arms, brakes, etc are done.

Rear is another issue. Everything is on except brake lines and shocks. The SPC rear camber arms don't fit with stock shocks, nor the Tokicos. Might have to relocate the bottom of the shock to compensate.

Other than that, drove it to my dad's shop from the garage I was working in. Now I have an appreciation of why shocks are required on cars.

Pics to come.

End of Day 4

Front is fully done with exceptions of the brake lines. Rear all is done except one shock as I ran out of time yesterday and brake lines. Pics will be coming today.

CFM front arms, brakes and front swaybar.





Tokico shocks and other stuff.



HTPerformance brace



With everything on, the car handles like a dream. Adjustable shocks are sick. Fronts I leave at fairly firm and rears I keep to almost full firm. Great on the highway at 120km/h.

Will post up new pics of the outside tomorrow after I do a major cleaning on the car this afternoon.

Great success!

Great looking parts. I just ordered my front brace and I also have a set of Ksport camber and toe arms coming as well. Post some pics once you have it installed?

OOPS!!! I didnt realize there was another page. I am getting used to the forum. Newbie here.
How do you like the tubular control arms? I also have a set of those as well but I havent put them on yet. The car looks great.

money well spent. Only regret I have is not changing the strut tower bearings but not a big deal.

As for the CFM arms, they're sweet. With those, the front brace and tokico struts, absolutely no wheelhop anymore. The arms are very easy to install, just make sure you use lots of lube.
