Look at some of the members specs and see what works for you. There are threads that have many different wheel specs and suspension setups that can give you an idea.

To those that have done it:

When you do a tuck on the wires that run over the wheel wells, where do you tuck them? In the fender? Is there already a hole, or do you have to cut one? Grommet? Does anything have to be de-pinned, or can I just unplug the headlights/etc... ?

Yes, there are holes on both sides. This post explained a lot for me before I tackled the job.

Some haven't had to extend any wires....I had to extend the windshiled washer fluid sensor plug on the passenger side. The headlight wires/plugs are a tight fit but I didn't have to extend any others.

We should do a group tuck so if someone gets stuck , one of the others can explain or take a pic. Anyone?


Chris what else you have bookmarked that would help with under hood mods?

Who makes better strut bars? NRG or GTSpec. I know they are very similar in price. Just wondering about how people like them and if there is any cons to either? I do have a plenum spacer, so do both of them fit over the plenum?

I'd be up for that...just not sure when I'm going to tackle it. I was considering trying to get it done before the Sedan GTG but I've been so lazy lately that it's not looking good

I've sent Ashley a few links to stuff...just PM me what you are looking to do and I'll try to dig stuff up. I don't usually bookmark them, I should....I just more or less remember how I did my search.

I had and NRG before and now have a Stillen. I'm happier with my Stillen over the NRG. It's more rigid and you can feel a difference between the two. NRG and GTSpec with both clear a 5/16" spacer with no problem. I also had my bar pully polished and removed the red letters.

I was thinking about getting the cf bar. Why did you get rid of the GTSpec?

^Check the Anti-Bling usergroup. If you haven't read it yet, there's a bunch of stuff on nice looking bolts.

I never had the GTspec. I got rid of the NRG cause I wanted to go with the Stillen instead cause I heard it was a stiffer bar.....that's what she said

StormTroppa I sold my NRG cause it didnt fit and I didnt want to mod it. So I would pass on them

Ash, I saw those links, they look like good stuff.

Chris thanks ill send you a pm when I sober up haha. Also if I do the wire tuck it would have to be in like 3 weeks since I have to get my friends sedan painted before I get to mine. Plus its gonna be cold here soon lol

So I have to replace my front wheel bearing, do I need the whole hub assembly or just wheel bearing?
