Installed Figs on both the #1 and #2 lower control arms. I previously had Daizens in the #2 arm so we will see if the mysterious clunk goes away. It sounded like it was coming from that area. I'm lowered on Megans and went with the non-adjustable #2 bushing. Ill get an alignment and see if I need to install the adjustable ones that I also have...

Deleted resonators for clearance got real old clipping reflectors every time I changed lanes and while it was up on the lift replaced the tranny mount, installed spacers, removed the mangled heat shield and raised the exhaust system. Before pic

so you powdercoated or painted the intake manifold and cut the middle part of the engine cover out? I like that it looks good actually... (a little better if the back piece was grey also OR use the SC430 one which is all black and it looks even better. great idea man



I put a trickle charger on mine since she hasn't left the garage in over 3 weeks now, guess that counts
