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?
