Man i'm sorry to open up those wounds
That really sucks to find a red 6mt and have to walk away, That took some will power right there. But you do have a sweet G in your driveway right now,And i hope that makes you feel better.

It does to a degree, all the way up until I have to slap her into DS mode

and for brad...sorry I knew I forgot something about the tires.....honestly I have no driven the car but 2-3 times since the new tires have been on. And all times were going just around the corner...however I can give a little feedback. The ride comfort and noise level is far supperior than OEM tires....I pushed it once around a corner and they broke loose a little so wasnt sure if they just need to break in or not to get more grip....good news is we head to Miami this weekend and were taking the wifes car so I'll have a chance to get some more feedback from these tires. Will make a feedback thread about them once some real milage is put on or they are pushed a little more

got a few goodies in and got a chance to play with my new toy (Motive Power Bleeder) which I may say made things 10000% easier. Very good product and worked extremely well and fast.



With that said I have taken the pludge again with cats......I picked up a brand new set of FI RHFC's as I've read they dont cause any rasp...so heres to hoping they pair with my Stillen cbe and play nicely together.

Some nice goodies you got there

Such a clean car love everything you have done to it. Question, how bad was the alignment with the Eibach's?

Daddy Fat Sacs

Yea was a good weekend.....going to attempt the HFC install this sat pending that the Kano Aerokroil coming that will hopefully do the job on those demon bolts

Thank you and I had ZERO issues after the Eibach install. Actually waited about a week - week 1/2 before I got it done as I wanted to make sure the springs completely settled first. But I will say that the install was an absolute BITCH for me! Backs were done in about 15 mins...the fronts I hope to never do again in my life

Ok well I attempted to get the cats installed Friday night by myself, I got as far as removing all 3 nuts on the passnger side and driver side along with 2 bolts, the 3rd bolt AKA DEMON BOLT would not come off for the life of me. I had my 2 ft 1/2" breaker bar along with many combo 1/2" extensions and could not get either to come off. I tried for about a good 3 hrs and finally gave up. So I took it to a local muffler shop who has done great work in the past for me, the tech there had to heat them up to get them off. Took him just over an hr for the total install.



As for the outcome...I couldnt be happier. There is a Car God afterall! I am proud to say there is ZERO rasp with the FI RHFC and the Stllen cbe! Cats made the tone a little louder, deeper, and more exotic and I absolutly LOVE it!

Heres a couple crappy cell phone pics I snapped real quick. I was too busy talking to the guy about cars and realized I better get a quick pic before she was lowered back down






So the ONLY thing left at this point for me that is....which i'm still on the fence about..is to get the 370m intake and then a tune or just a tune and forget the intake....not really sure the intake is worth the price for the little bit of pony's gained in mid range vs losing some on top end. Guess time will tell.....my goal was to have the car tuned by this summer so hopefully I can still stay on track with that.

I've been using Leatherique and 303 Aerospace, too. And Meguiar's products, natch.

That must be at least $300 worth of product. What was the final tally?

Stachuu

iTrader: (1)

I'd like to see the dyno test results after you get the tune!
Nice work on the car!

It was actually $304.31 shipped to my door, saved about $45 or so with the coupon and then prob a good $100+ buying it all through DI...not sure what your comment about Meguair's means? But Ive personally had GREAT results with their line and really looking forward to using their higher end products

Thank you and yes hopefully I can get a tune sooner than later....Ive found myself pushing the car every chance I get this past week. The tone is just so incredible

Natch = naturally.

As in, Mequires products are awesome and everyone knows that.

Seems it didn't translate well enough from words to print.

haha yea missed that....on a side note...the 105 compund is an absolute B*TCH to use in this FL heat! Have the car in the garage and could only get 2 passes before it completely dried will either have to try it at night or wait until winter...... #WARMWEATHERPROBLEMS

I see what you did there.

In Florida... wax the car indoors, at night. Better yet, just plastidip the whole thing and walk away.
