Man.. R1s car is going to be a force to be reckoned with once he gets enough time to work on his own car...

He definitely has vision and the means to set standards.. I can't wait to see what he imagines, and I'm excited to shoot whatever the outcome is.. Dude is a visionary..

yeah, it's not the futura brand or the price that i'm referring to. my opinion is brembo 4/2 > futura 6/4. but then again... the futura look bad a$$

If no brembo, futura is the way to go!

I can happily say I am done for a while. My problem is that when I am done, I start thinking about what's next, and getting a new car (must resist my urge for a BMW M3 or M5....).

The bad.... I busted the bottom of a side skirt in the process, and dremeled the crap outta my arm with the cutting wheel; both felt great....

The plan for tomorrow.... lower the front a tad more (to match the rear and to get a little more negative camber to get rid of the rubbing), and fix the side skirt (it is about a 6-10" crack on the bottom, and I am going to try some JB Weld to fix it).

Done. All lowered in the front now. I went down about another 1/2" inch and got everything evened up. It looks good! As I mentioned, I will get my car cleaned up tomorrow and get some pics up.

Also, I was wrong about cracking the side skirt. It was just a line from the mold. So, the only collateral damage was from me dremeling my arm with a cutting wheel.
