    #9 could definitely be eliminated, I also wonder where #4 sits and whether or not it could be trimmed down as well. Thats exactly the kind of thing Im thinking about though. I think I will swap out the struts and shocks to Bilsteins too while Im at it since everything has to come apart anways

    edit: while you're at it can you post the same for the rear suspension?

        thanks!

        I still need to sell this Supersprint X-Pipe for a C63, if anyone helps me sell it, you're getting a cut ($$). Its brand new, never been installed. Cheapest price out there is $520 from Turner usually its in the 7-800s and that doesnt factor shipping. Im asking $450, but Im flexible. It wont work on my Benz and I cant buy more cool stuff until I sell it, especially after this recent issue that popped up.

                Never thought those little relays on the drivers side would be my problem for so long. My Stubbornness.

                  Yeah, I agree. One thing I love about the w204 is the flare, and with the right wheel it looks really good. I like the AMG wheels on mine, I may someday upgrade, but the plan was to keep this car OEM fresh, so just making it look better and factory.

                  I still dont know why they have those "insulators" and have been thinking of just removing them altogether and leaving the stock sport springs minus those pieces and just adding bilsteins.

                  @Edwin, how was the show last night?

                          I'm sorta putting my car back together it's an m30 swap.
                          It's using the m20 harness but the m30 has it's own alternator harness bolted on the block.
                          i'm noticing it's running both power cables to the starter and both signals as well.

                          The m30 alternator signal one just ends with a 3 prong plug to nowhere.
                          Just thought that was funny. I knew jack shit about stuff back then like 7 years ago.

                          Funny how you see all these fuck ups after knowing now wtf ur talking about.
                          Stock harness is all oily and falling apart. all these janky butt connectors ect.

                                I can't wait to say, "hey, I'm broke, but check out this m20 though."
