Performed the dreaded cam sprocket replacement... New at top, old at bottom, notice the little spring popping out.

Did the 'these tires must die' mantra on highway 32, lighting the dash like a christmas tree, then ran her up until the tach said no more in 5th. Tires could have the lead shifted a little but not bad.

Installed Perrin front sway bar. What a PITA that was. Now I have one less excuse for the coming autocross season.

Thanks man!
Yep it's close on the fender gap but I'm not lowered so much that it ever rubs. Car corners hard and flat, no signs rubbing. I'm at -2 camber in the back.

I'm running the same size on rsr superdowns and no rubbing either. I think I ended up with -3 in the rear and Max out camber bolts in the front ~1.6 negative camber

Installed my Perrin front plate relocator kit. Car didn't come with one from the dealership I bought it from. Looks great and only took about 15 mins.
