NICE. interesting that you came off like you didnt have bigger brakes in the rear.
how do you like your IRS? Iam trying to dicide between a 03/04 IRS with MM coilovers and a MM torque arm panhard bar coilovers and LCMs on my stock rear end.

I like the IRS a lot. I don't drag race my car. It is definitely a DD. Just to let others know, I have had Cobra front brakes for 2+ years. The rears were changed with the IRS recently. I noticed the front brake difference (helped to have SS lines), but couldn't tell the rears changed. I agree with Betrayer00GT that the rears would show themselves when heated at a track event (thus the need for vented rotors and also larger).

The IRS is stock. It had only a few thousand miles on it. My previous solid axle was FRPP uppers and Steeda lowers. I can say I like the IRS better than that also. I believe Bennyblown on here went to an IRS twice. After the first time he put a solid with panhard, etc. People had kept saying a solid axle can be as good as an IRS. Then he decided the IRS was better than that setup.

If you want to see his story, there is a thread (maybe in taklk) here on the IRS.
