Yep everything showed up in perfect shape, thanks man! The 25mm spacers make a huge difference, but the more I look at the 25 + 8 setup the more I like it. I might give it a shot and see what happens.

Keep me up to date! I know when I installed mine, I thought I had enough clearance between the rotors an d the ball joint. But I noticed that as soon as I dropped the car and had load on the wheels, the gap got smaller and noticed that had some rub mark on the inner rotors. I'm thinking of just getting a 3mm spacer and put it between the hub and rotor to push the gap 3mm more. Not sure if I need to extend the studs?

Unfortunately I then realized I has completely forgotten about the small crossmember and went and dug it out from under the car. Unfortunately it's in much worse shape than everything else, so I'm going to get it sandblasted.
I ended up snapping one of the studs on the weight/block of metal that bolts to the crossmember, does anyone know what this thing is actually for? It's part #51277‑20010 and it looks to be some kind of counterweight, if I need it I'll drill out the stud and put in a bolt, but if it's useless I won't bother putting it back in.

Where are these main subframe bushes from? i would like to check them out
