Swift+Bilstein HD installed - Now I have a problem
A little review after driving it a lot: the ride compared to GSR stock suspension is much better.
The car is a lot quieter in city and highway driving. I cannot hear and feel every little
bump. I almost had an orgasm when driving over my first railroad crossing with them
Performance wise, I'd say that the car feels a lot more forgiving and predictable.
Maybe this is because my stock GSR suspension had 96000 miles on it.
I will have to test it on more hard driving conditions to give a real performance review on these.
I recommend it to everyone: call GTWORX and ask them for the Swift + Bilstein HD combo.
This suspension will perfectly satisfy the daily driver, and should do very well at auto-x / track.
Read Smike reviews for more info. Thanks!

To the OP, i'm glad you figured this out. I'll have to watch out for this when i get my hd's. Just waiting on gtworx...
Smike: on the first side shot pic of your evo, the space between the fender and edge of wheel looks a lot more than the gap on rears (i.e. 3 finger gap to 1 finger gap).Was this pic taken before the front have settled or is this how it looks on oem tires/rims? Would you happen to have a more recent level side shot pic as your side shot looks different from the other side pics with evo's running 18" rims.

A hint to check the perch without removing it is to compare space between it and the grey stickers. On this pic, you see that one of the perch is farther from the sticker; it is upside down
