Sampler pack it is!!... My guess is I'll head up there spring or early summer, whenever the weather clears.

Busy, busy, busy!

On Friday, Tyler and I installed some Drift Effects lower control arms and toe arms on @BULLETTRAIN86 (Jorge) white FR-S from Salem, so he could reign in some of the camber from the drop.





We also bolted the Eibach Pro Kit pulled from @myd_lyf_crysis onto @Dvipercop white BRZ to eliminate that ugly wheel gap.





Then today, @-Inc stopped by for a bunch of goodies! Perrin Swaybars with adjustable endlinks and Raceseng upper camber plates in the front. In back, Perrin swaybars with adjustable endlinks, SPL lower control arms, SPL trailing arms and SPL adjustable toe arms with the eccentric lockout kit. Wow, that's a lot of adjustment!

Do you ever use your lift? I'm thinking of picking up an STI lip, and it involves a lot of upside down drilling.

I have so much house renovation stuff stacked in the lift area right now that I can't really use it. It's gonna be out of commission for the next six months until I get the bathroom and kitchen finished in the house.

Sorry man!

DarrenDriven NOOooOoOoOOooOooooo..... Say it isn't so! I just picked up coils and new shoes for my baby, and I hoped to finally make the trip up. Now what am I supposed to do with these cases of premium beer?!

I know, that is kinda crazy.

@thehapaone - I've got an empty FR-S shaped area if you want to come out, just text me and we can work out the when.
