its very good quality and it looks great. im not a fan of the round tips, so ill probably change them to oval tips. its extremely quiet too - like a tamed stock g35/350z sound.

get some kroil or liquid wrench - http://www.kanolabs.com/
spray enough to where it will soak in overnight. use a long pipe on the spanner wrench for more leverage. if the bushing flexes too much before your leverage kicks in, take it out and put it in a vice. if that doesnt work, you will have to disassemble the coilover to be able to clean the dirt off the rings. if that doesnt work, you will likely have to cut off the rings and purchase new ones from the manufacturer.

I just found a sound clip for an sc300 and it does sound great. I had one on my '87 corolla rwd a few years back and I really liked it. Looks like I'l be getting one of these for my sc when I get a chance. Thanks

dont have much for updates..

i took the opportunity to dynamat the floor and lay down some closed cell foam while the carpet was being steam cleaned. the carpet had some stains in between the seats from the previous owner(s) so im glad that got taken care of.

well, there wasn't much interest in the car for the price i wanted, so i decided to keep it for a while longer. it only has 72k miles now so i will probably run up the mileage to 90-100k and then maybe try to sell it again. if not, its possible this car has a single turbo na-t setup and a matte white vinyl wrap in its future.

in an effort to sell the car faster i sold the fujitsubo catback exhaust, abflug suspension, and the veilside wheels are still for sale.

but since i am keeping it for a while longer i thought i would make some changes and enjoy the car a bit more while i am working on the widebody one's engine-

new set of veilsides - 18x9 +20 18x10 +25 (old set of 18x9 +36 is for sale if anyone wants them, i will let them go pretty cheap)
