Hello fellow Speeders!
New olderish guy here. I daily drive a 2012 Liquid Silver Speed3. Owned since new and currently has 67k+ trouble free miles and still going strong. The car is completely stock still and I hope to add some basic bolt-ons this year to her. I also own a 2008 Silver CX7 that my wife drives, also stock. I had been doing a lot of reading and research on our platform before joining and still have lots more to do but I understand the basics and I'm learning the limitations of the stock engine & fueling. My previous car was a 2010 CPW Mazda 3. I also drove a 89 Z31 300zx since 1997 that I got rid of around 2013/2014.
Thanks

Well-cum!

Might just be the angle bur your car looks lowered.

Get some Bilstein shocks and struts, along with the Damond Motorsports engine mounts.

It will make the car feel 1000x better and won't put you in any danger of affecting DD duties.
 
Cell phone picture could have skewed the angle a bit with its wide lens. Not lowered at all, so stock, but a newer tighter suspension is on my list. Thanks for the suggestions. I need to get rid of the lower motor mount, drives me nuts everytime I shift.

If you can, wait until a good holiday sale and pull the trigger on all 3 Damond mounts. It's a couple of bucks but trust me, you won't regret getting all 3.

Also if you like a simple suspension setup but want to align it well, get the SPC camber arms for the rear suspension. The OEM way of aligning the rear still leaves you with little camber adjustment.
 
Cool thanks for the insight on the camber arms and mounts mounts. Yeah I'm not looking to slam it, I'm more about performance than it looking good parked.

You'll thank yourself the first time you row through the gears after upgrading the rear mount...makes a world of difference in drivability. I've had no complaints about my Corksport RMM but general consensus these days seems to be that Damond's mounts are the best out there.
