Update On The Ride

Hey guys, havent really been active in much other than the members FS/Wanted thread mostly because I have been searching for parts. Ive been working on a college student budget but everything has turned out incredibly well...

I did a couple things just recently in the past couple weeks:

JWT Popcharger/OEM Ztube (Self Installed)
Smoked Tail Lights (Self Installed but also a complete PIA)
20% Tint All Around

Edit: I have got a coupe midpipe on the way so that is going on next.
Also I wanted to throw out a recommendation for the tint company i used but ill post that in another thread
http://www.mygfrenzy.com/forum/showt...869#post199869

Here are some pics, didnt get a chance to snap pics of the engine bc it was getting dark, ill get those pics up soon, but here it goes...









Lemme know what you think...

why ?

save your money for something else like wheels and just get some used z springs shocks/struts.

~$200 and you'll have it all with a perfect ride height and no alingment problems.

^ +1.

OP - will you be tracking your car? i ask because i don't see the point in spending the money on a fancy coilover set-up if you only plan on street driving. Z suspenders are good enough for street use. but if you will be tracking it then your idea makes sense.
