Tell me what you guys think

sweet! diggin' those wheels!

add coilovers to the list ;) nice lookin car

Ive really considered them but I don't track it and the road around where i live aren't good at all. I may come back to them after ive gotten everything else ive planned on but who knows. Maybe a r-magic lip kit later down the road as well.

4th gear syncro is dead so I got a new trans coming later this week as well as a new staged clutch, lightweight flywheel, and maybe a short throw.

Ordeirng clutch, lightweight flywheel, short throw shifter, and maybe a catless midpipe tonight since I found a killer deal on the midpipe.

flywheel and short throw came in today. The flywheel feels super light compared to the stock flywheel and the short throw should feel incredible when I get it installed as well as
everything else.


EDIT: Clutch is now in my hands all i'm waiting on is the counterweight.

nice 8 man! like the exhaust!!

Thanks man I appreciate it.

counterweight is in my hands. All I have to do now is make an appointment with kevin landers whenever he is not busy and get everything installed.

Well FWIW :001_005: i used to live in TN and i dont remember the roads being nearly as bad there as they are here in Montana. 2 of my friends are sittin on BC Racing coilovers on full soft and they are incredible. They arent kidney jarring and they are honestly much more comfortable (IMHO) than my tokico/eibach strut and spring set up. did i mention they are very affordable too. You will stick like glue man. I say perfect for even just spirited street driving. I dont track my FC and im gonna go coilover route aswell

I live kinda in the backwoods of east TN lol the city here is very small and has very little money to make the streets prestine. Most roads are farm roads and back roads lol ive honestly been thinking more and more about coilovers. Im not wanting anything super expensive. What would you recommend for some that are not super expensive and also hold up well? Ive been considering some tein coilovers (about $800) or possibly buying my buddies megan racing coilovers when he gets his new coilovers in.

Spare the 8k and go somewhere in the 6k region.

huh? The tein basic coilovers are around 800 dollars brand new.

I should have clarified I was referring to the HIDs...

oh ok I gotcha. Yea ive had a lot of people recommend 6k to me recently and is most likely what I will do once I get to it.
