I love how Mike always looks like he is smiling. I guess he is really happy with what he is doing, and I don't blame him :) Interesting stuff. Although it seems a bit like a commercial for KW Suspension, I guess that would be the case with any other suspension if you had picked another brand.
very nice start, great direction for the build & the use of quality suspension components is exactly what the frs needs to take it to that next level & ready for more power! would love some KW suspension/whiteline goodness uhhh
Mike Kojima is the BEST!!! I love hearing hes technical analysis of parts and how a car is set up to handle!!! Mike needs his own tech show! I definitely would pay to see that. Having him for this scion frs project won my vote hands down!
Hi, I bought a KW 2-way Clubsport suspension and after install the camber plate was no longer aligned with the rebound knob. Than center screw should be adjust? Thanks!
About how much do all the component changes featured in this video cost? Not the labor, just the white line stuff and KW’s? Does anyone offer a complete kit?
The video looks like a Whiteline catalog presentation. Could have mixed showing the products with putting them on, that way it wouldn't look as much as a parts catalog presentation.
At least 5k, and then you need another 5k on some wheels & tires that are equally sexy, similar for a big break kit, at least as much again for a built motor; ~6k for forced induction Long story short, easily 30k to modify a car like this in a sexy high quality way

Mike is so chill and informative, really wish someone as knowledgeable as Mike would setup and breakdown shit to a dummy like me for my C6.

Great stuff, always fun and informative when Mike explains stuff about what happens underneath the car :-D lets have more :-D
Great video, looking forward to the next. 👍
Can't wait to see the final product!
Can wait to see the ep 2.
Great explanations!!
You guys had me clicking the "like" button once you said kW suspension.
Nice video. I have quite a bit of wheel hop on my Suzuki Swift Sport so hearing about polyurethane bushings was quite pleasing :)
thanks, I guess the coil overs with lighter wheels help in your case... mine is practically stock and it has an added mass of 20mm wheel spacers...
doesn't it make a bit harsh as a every day car? some guys told me that it becomes harsher and the interior rattles a lot more on regular roads...
Mr. Kojima (and I'm not talking about Hideo lol), you're the man!
Both of them are good at what they do.
Lots of useful tips! Cheers!
great video
Nice! Speed Academy on TH-cam used the same coilovers and white line products for their targa frs. 👍
Exactly, we love the @spdacademy guys! th-cam.com/users/spdacademy

Cool. So how much total for all that?

How much was all that

Mike kinda looks like oka chan XD
I wonder if he's related to Hideo Kojima....
savagegeese Your next project, if you don't go and buy a S2k
"Mike from AutoIQ" doesn't sound very knowledgeable in the art of suspension tuning.
