Well, if the real advantage of stiffer mounts is getting power to the ground faster and having less slop in the drivetrain, I'm still there. I can shift the car as fast as I want and down shifts are super snappy. I've already put 1500 miles or so on the car, and I would say I'm not driving it much. I plan on commuting in this thing daily/regularly so the back seat is staying in and I'm going to do everything I can to balance performance and comfort. Suspension is next, after the bodywork is done.

Side note, you wouldn't happen to know anyone with stock GSR suspension for sale, would you? Ideally I want bilsteins, but damn they are impossible to find!
