My professor for fluid mechanics this quarter said homework will be collected, but it doesn't have to even be done. He even said "You can turn in a kitchen recipe for all i care; you just need a sheet of paper that has your name & Student ID."

..so from then on, I only turned in kitchen recipes.

LMAO Thats the end goal. It is only like 2K or so to upgrade to those from what I have already. I also plan on having a few sets of swift springs so I can adjust my spring rates for DD and track duty ect.

btw TRD door stabilizer is legit part. I need to install that on my car too... but other stuff get in my way.

Also why went w F7/R8 springs? That's stiff! By any means, I'm not crazy like F8/R8~9... but I wouldn't say it's gonna be comfortable drive for daily. I have F6/R7 and that's still a bit rough on some areas.

Yeah I know the TRD door stabilizers are legit, I dont buy things that are for bling (except my gauge cluster lol thats all for show) I cant wait to get them on, might do them tomorrow as well.

as far as the spring rates go you saw my rubber right? You have to balance aero (I have none so it makes picking spring rates much much easier) with your tire grip level to your spring rates if you want to achieve the optimal performance. In all honesty my spring rates are probably a little on the soft side for the tires I am running.

And yes next year (likely when I will) I will be sending my coils in for a major upgrade then I can say I am apart of the way overkill coilover club.

Oh I do agree with to balance out suspension and tires. Even with those Nitto tires, 7/8 spring rate is a bit imo... but everyone have their own preference.

& I beg to differ on "I dont buy things that are for bling", did I see ORANGE Mishimoto Air-Oil Cooler? iirc Calgary gets snow, but doesn't get hot, if I'm not mistaken. I would of got water-oil cooler instead, so in the winter time, it'll go into operational temp faster than air-oil.BUT again, it's your car and you know what you're doing more than I do... so I'll wait to see your build in the member journal section.

This warms up my cold, dead heart.

Haha I do like my ride firm, Factory feels like its wayy to soft for me haha. And yes we get snow but we also see days that are +15C in the winter due to chinooks. In the summer we see +30C often as well. Your right its gold cuz I am baller but I got it for performance first and foremost hahaha! Even with the oil cooler my oil warms up plenty fast so it works for me. Also I wanted gold cuz how many other twins have a gold core? Probably none cuz its not even an option.

Thanks I will get a proper one up oneday hahaha
