Hey guys I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on a Kmember, I'm on BMR's site as we speak and there a ton of options, before I ask which one is better for my application would switching the kmember hurt the comfort level of the car? How about stuff like turns? My car is for the most part a DD so yeah. So which kmember should i run on my car?

kmember motor mounts standard rack mounts

kmember motor mounts pinto rack mounts

kmember 1/2" lowered motor mounts standard rack mounts

kmember 1/2" lowered motor mounts pinto rack mounts?

might be now that you mention it. i have heard that rececraft is supposedly better then bmr and bmr is better then upr so.. i think either way racecraft is the safest bet.

Get the std rack mounts. Pinto rack mounts are for full on race cars and will require you to change to a manual pinto steering rack setup. Also, dont get lowered mounts. For a basic street car, that will cause you headaches b/c everything will be lowered and some oem lines, fittings, wires, etc may or may not reach. Plus it will be messing with your pinion angle, so you will need an adj upper control arm in the rear to bring it back into spec. Not worth all the hassle IMO.

don't forget you need to re-tune an s197 when replacing floormats or tinting your windows. :asswave:
