Yup been giving it some thought. Gonna finish mines up finally in a few days lol

 

OEM sensors? If so, got a link for future reference?

 

Yep OEM. The price fluctuates all the time on Amazon but not usually by much. Here's a few links:

 

I did some extensive work on the car this past week.


Here is the list lol:

NEW Whiteline Subframe and Differential Bushings:

Rear Differential Removed:




Pressed the old bushings out of the ears and decided to paint the differential:




New Whiteline Differential Ear Bushings put in:



Subframe bushing pressed in. Here is an interesting note about this part. As you can see in the picture the front of the subframe is partially blocked because the sedan has a huge spare tire well. The install of the subframe bushing is a little more tricky compared to the coupe. Especially when using a mini sawzall to cut it out. Here it is installed:








Also decided to put in new sway bar endlinks and bushings since you need to drop the rear sway bar:




Ran into another issue with the rear toe bolts. Last time I had an alignment performed at the shop, the rear toe bolts were seized into the bushings. SO the toe could not be adjusted (Damn Northeast). Anyways has to end up cutting the bolts out with the bushings too Check out these bolts!!:




I also pressed out the bushings from the spring bucket arm that had the toe bolts seized inside. I'm going to install Whiteline bushings into these. I also decided to clean them up and paint them:




Since I am doing new toe bolts, why not install my new SPC rear camber arms too:




Since I had the car completely up on jack stands in my garage, I also decided to drop my wheels off at a shop to have them powdercoated again since the old finish was chipping and fading. I went with a different place this time. I also had wheels wrapped in new Continental ExtremeContact DSW06 tires:






Very happy with everything so far. I'm going to finish up the last of this stuff tonight

 

Arizona and back, drove about 2400 total miles. Got really good mileage, especially considering the speed limits were 75 and 80 pretty much the whole way. One tank was 29.4, another 28.0 and the last one was 28.4. Currently sitting just under a half tank after 270 miles so this one should be good too.

 

So jealous of your mpg. I'm averaging like 19 City/Highway Rn lol.

 

Great work, congrats

 

Yeah, nice. You did the diff subframe mount, but not the subframe mounts. Got confused there for a second.

 

Around here, I get about that combined because the traffic light timing in DFW is so hideously bad. Got 22 combined while in Phoenix because the light timing is so much better...basically everything is timed to the speed limit, so just go that and you get a lot of green lights.

Highway mileage was 25-26 mpg before the tune, picked up 2-3 mpg highway since.

 

Pulled my intake off to prepare for a Z Tube. Next is debating on the kinetix v+ manifold or the motordyne spacer for the 03 sedan. Still searching but several of the threads appear to be unanswered or heckled.

 

PM sent

 

Traded my wheels for these 😍😍😍

 

I'm glad it's symmetric. It looks different!

 

Sold my coupe rays that I bought last year for 100 bucks for 500 and used that money to buy the wheels I really wanted.

In the meantime I'll be running these xxrs that I got free from a friend
​​​​​​Sorry for your highly saturated picture. The before pic was kinda dark and poorly taken

 

Think that front bumper would fit on an 03? I like the updated look and its oem vs aftermarket.
