Before you put the top mount with bushings in place, did you put one of the large washers on first? Like #15 in this pic...

Most likely, you forgot to install #15.
OT: Is that a CF muffler on your intake? Or is that the eBay version on the AEM V2? Never seen an intake like that before...

Koni gives you a flat washer to put under the cup washer for the bushing.

yea, I did forget to put #15 on, cause my old Tom motor sport didn't need them cause they had there own cup that replaced the washer.
but luckely I still had the washer from the previous install.
thanks alot guys

alright, I took everything apart, put in washer 15# and it fixed that problem but now it seems like the threaded part of the strut isn't tight at all. I didn't drive my car yet, but when I press down on the bumper my car is'nt stiff at all (half of stock) and see the rubber expande and my strut go higher.
what gives ?

just be grateful you didnt close the hood and then put the car down or you would have 2 nice shock sized dents/holes in the hood.
