Need suspension advice
Having driven a Spec7 on the track and street for years, I agree with hcaulfield on the set-up. It is a little on the stiff side, but if you like that it is do-able. The handling is nice and it give the car a nice stance. Adjust the strut tops to give maximum negative camber and you will be fine. You should be able to get about .75deg negative. You can get 1 to 1.25 deg if you slot the holes. If you are not racing, there is no need for more negative camber.
When I changed to a pro7 suspension setup (350 lb front, 200 lb rear) the settings for the illuminas was 5 in front and 1 in back. With KYB's you wont have to worry about that though.

Yeah I'll definitely make sure to adjust the strut tops to get the most neg camber I can. Thanks for the input
