Looks good. Lovin' the Beaks lower tie bar. I switched from a Spoon lower tie to the Beaks and love the noticability of it, as well as the functionality of the Beaks over the Spoon bar (no pivot ends like the Spoon bar).
Just like you, I did a full rear suspension/under chassis make over before I left the states to come back to Iraq. I did the Beaks bar, ASR subframe brace (brushed aluminum), and the red Password JDM LCA's (which are fairly spendy for LCA's, but are an awesome piece and also use spherical bushings instead of conventional rubber/silicone/urethane bushings (so no worries about torn bushings like in the pic on the previous pages). If I could go back, I would have ordered an upgraded rear sway at the same time (still rockin' the stock Si in the rear). However Im very pleased with the end result so far. Would post pics, but I need my camera to upload the pics I took before I left.
Another thing, Im still sportin' the Dropzone shock/Skunk2 coilover setup the Si came with when I bought it almost 2 years ago. I would definitly not recommend this setup to anyone serious about taking their car to the track. Maybe for someone on a budget who wants a quick drop, but thats about it. The ride isn't "horrible", but it is bouncy to an extent and certainly not desirable for a true performance suspension setup.
When I get back, I plan on switching the current setup on my EM1 to the same coilover setup I have on my MKIV, which are Tein Flex coilovers. I swear by the performance and quality that Tein products offer now that I've had the privilage of installing and owning a car with them.
