I got them used from str directly, Got them for a smoking deal. :D

Getting some new paint in the engine bay and also smoked my tail lights. A bit dark, may have to wet sand them.

Well, since big tires rub I need some adjustment.
So Gc coilovers are coming as well as some Condor speed shop lollipop bushings.

Of course right when all leaks are fixed, and Im done breaking in the clutch I blow out a spark plug. Threads are probably stipped.

Damn

:(

[thatphysicsguy]

[Dj Buttchug]

try and chase the spark plug threads/ retap or swap heads.

Summit carries a kit thats for m14x1.25, I am going to give that a shot.
If this head is unfixable I might save up for a new mystery e head or build my own.

Front right wheel bearing is pretty dead too. Fix one issue and on to another issue.

Just got ground control coilovers on too. :(((((((((((((((((

Spark plug ended up being ok, threads were still there.
Turning the boost up to 11psi, tried to about an hour ago but the boost controller wasn't working properly.
Im hoping to be close to 300whp with 11psi, If not ill have to get some 60lb injectors and just go up :D

Lookin' good!

So did you ever address that sway bar linkage issue that caused ride height to be all wonky?

Or will you get to that when you're in there doing the wheel bearing?

[TheTacoMan]

Havent addressed either, Its either I get a new subframe or weld in a new mount for the passenger side of the subframe.
Wheel bearing is no problem but Im still not sure how Im going to get this fixed.

Damn TACO your car looks amazing man! Love Da wheels...I think I made my choice. What make, size are they front and rear? using any spacers? Are those kamotors nomal flairs or extra wide?
