Thanks for the compliments guys. I appreciate everyones kind words and support over the last 2 years, wow 2 years already! It is about darn time I lowered her! LOL!
TexasGS - The Brembos and the ceramic pads make a huge difference, very sticky. I have stainless steel braided brake lines also, which reall changes the feel of them also.
e-diddy - I wish, I spent all my money on these mods. Have to start saving again. Dream rims are the iFORGED REV. I think they would look insane on my car, but I am either going to have to sell a vital organ or start the JNW Relief Fund ( Joel Needs Wheels).
GWELEX - The ride is great. The difference from stock is subtle. You can feel the bumps a little mare, but it is due to the quicker reaction on the shocks and springs, instead of the floating feeling over every bump. It corners very well, and trus me I have tested it. If anyone in OC in familiar with Cooks Corner, they know there is a wicked little hill with some great switchbacks. All I can say is, I tore it up and did not lose traction even once. I need to try it now since I just put new tires on and got a 4 wheel alignment.
