  • Coils on dampers (coilovers) on all 4 corners will keep suspension geometry constant, except that those front endlinks connect to the coilover so the aftermarket will have to support that.
  • Shallow oil pan, low total capacity.
  • Headers run under the oil pan (oil temps).
  • Steel suspension compenents. No camber adjustment seen yet. A lot of cost savings all around.
what makes you say that about the trans?
