I have a Gt haus catback (with resonators welded in )and its much too brutal for my taste, combined with the rattle every so often and the hiss its starting to get at me. Im either gonna go back to stock cats (but i want power) or make a exhaust much like ARK's Grip and put my gt haus mufflers on (so a true dual gt huas). Both ideas are up in the air atm

Ugh! I guess there's no point in installing my front camber a-arms today either.

Maybe I'll find some time next week when the correct ones come in.

I was able to get one thing done though.
I finally got the Escort off of the windshield suction cup mount after 10 years.

So there's that.

I guess I'll try to make due and giver her an oil change and wash.

Maybe it's not a wasted day after all.

What did you buy to do that? And how did you get rid of the power cord?

Dropped my car off at vehicle storage today. Won't be driving her until February 2017. I wanted to cry.

Outdoor storage? How often do they start the car and let it warm up?

I don't have an exact number but at least once a week, it gets moved around the lot too.

Today I added some spacers. I should have done this months ago. What a difference.

On Wednesday I'm going to install the toe bolts (I finally ordered the right ones) and the front A-arms. Then Thursday one final alignment for a while.... I hope.

I mounted the remote head in the ash tray and the power is tapped into the cigarette lighter.
