Still not done but wish I was. And then I got my Imola sedan to overhaul unless I sell it. That thought has crossed my mind....nice work, vas! happy wife = happy life.

I have just about the same setup as VAs's wife's car but I have poly sway bar bushings in the front and rear. and adjustable end links on the rear bar because that's what came with the UUC sway bars. I'm really happy with the way the car feels right now
M3 Motor mounts are on my to do list.
I used OEM diff bushings last time I did them but I'm debating on switching to something a little more durable since I have an LSD. There is some serious twisting on that single rear diff bushing as opposed to the two bushings on the M3

I saw that but I would lean more towards a sedan vs coupe. Then the field of cars available becomes very slim

Yup and your color preferences seem to carry a premium too...

That they do. That is why the zhp is still in the driveway and I will most likely end up keeping it and doing a complete overhaul on it.

The only new suspension components I have are front lower control arm bushings. Other than that, every thing is going to hit 110,000 miles tomorrow.
My ZHP is my daily, but 95% of the time it is just me in the car. I do a lot of highway driving but mix in a few mountain pass runs on the weekends and eventually will hit the track. I came from the world of Subarus, so instantly the NVH difference is hugely noticeable. Plus by the time I was done with my BRZ, it was pretty raw and very connected to the road.
I want to corner flatter and stiffen up the feel of the car. I also want to square my tire set up and run 255s in all corners. I am also on a budget :/
Those will be the three main factors in my decisions. I will mostly likely end up, for the most part, with an OEM+ set up. I know some folks don't like to share price / cost of items, but if you don't mind, I'd like to see so I can start to plan things out.
Still interested to hear more of what people have done to their ZHPs
