Dan, if we go back to the same place as before, they have a lot of stuff that isn't sea food on the menu. You could go with wings, soups, fried noodles, teriyaki beef/chicken etc... Honestly, I'm not too big a seafood fan either but there are types of sushi that I like i.e. shrimp tempura rolls or rolls that have crab or something more mild tasting in the fishy sense. Friday and Saturday are no go for me though...I have plans already.

Dan...FYI, Sunday doesn't work to crash the LX club meet. They have like 20 cars attending apparently....so to get your springs installed, we need to figure out a better night. Might be a higher priority then sushi?
Yea man, this Friday night is about the only night that wont work for me. Is anyone available a night before that this week or even next week sometime? And we should try and find a day that Trev could install his exhaust as well...
Next week will work out better.
I got all my body parts today. Only thing is some of the parts I ordered were supposed to by poly and they came as fiberglass. Tried fitting up the side skirts and they need to be trimmed and modified. Also there is only two places to attach it as opposed to the 15 spots on the factory sides. Trunk fit like a glove but I accidently locked it with no way to get it open
Gonna find a way to get it open tomorrow. Front bumper is close but needs some trimming. Im gonna drop the car off tomorrow and actually work on it there since they have better tools.. dremel etc. Hoping to get the car back by sat if I can get all the parts fitted up in the next two days.
On a side note the car is not sitting as low as it was before it was up on the jack stands. Thinking of cutting the rubber mount for all for springs and lowering the car some more.

Trev, if you do the spring mount mod in the back, just make sure you don't cut too much off so the mount can still do it's job. I believe it was like 3/4" off max. And I don't recall the fronts being able to beadjusted that way. The car is higher because the springs weren't compressed. Having it back on the ground should make it settle down again.
As for the body modifications...I probably had a good 10 hours of fitting and prepping before I had it go to paint for my rear and front. Take some progress pics as you go!

Coilovers are not an option this year. If I spend any more dough on the car my wife will probably take my Glock
and shoot me.
