So I'm still waiting on my Bride parts to be painted... so frustrating... I wish I had learned to paint cars when I was younger and had more time... maybe one day I'll make it a point to learn... that way I could do it myself like most everything else.

On another note... I've dedicated myself to the gym once again... which is where some of my 'working on my car time' goes. It doesn't take long for my body to take to the training...I'm lucky like that.

Every week I get closer to my normal... although my weight is still up (not so much in a bad way though). Anyway, today I did 405lbs for 3 sets of 10 before Romanian deadlifting 500lbs for 3... I also worked out my biceps... with little rest between sets... I curled 170lb on the straight bar for 4 on my last set (no swinging).

Anyway, I don't post stuff like this anywhere... this is the only forum I frequent... but today I felt so good I just had to get it out... lol

Btw, I'm using Optimum Nutrition (ON) Creatine (pill), ON Protein, ON Amino Energy, and Prime Labs Test Booster (I'm at that age... lol).

Finally got these back...





I'll receive the remaining seat belt brackets early tomorrow...

Then I'll try to get the seats and harnesses installed tomorrow or Saturday.

Almost there... at least for the time being.

Not doing this any time soon if at all but I would love to add the '17 FR-S front bumper and headlights because I really like the stancenation/aimgain collaboration kit type 2. If I went in that direction I would probably get an airlift system and wider wheels and tires (given) as well.




Stancenation -x- Aimgain type 2

Awesome I've been waiting to see real pictures of the type 2 instead of the rendering they had on their site. Yeah I like the type 2 way more than the original. Looks like the only pieces that wouldn't fit early model twins are the front lip and front fender extensions

By itself I totally agree... but in my opinion, the kit changes the appearance of the front in a very positive manner. I dig it.

I like the type 1 stance nation/aimgain kit as well but I'm not too fond of the front lip.

I must admit that the StanceNation 86 is a guilty pleasure and I hate myself for liking it.

I soldered in the side airbag cancellers this morning and vacuumed up both passenger and driver side floor boards in preparation for my Bride seat install...





I'm going to pick up my last few Beatrush gold painted brackets in a few... I'll probably finish tomorrow since I have to hit the gym and work.

These pics illustrate how I ran my harnesses under the seats...

I used double-sided tape on the back of the occupant weight sensor module along with zip ties. I also used a few standoffs.

Everything is installed minus the harnesses... I'll have to do a bit of research in order to install them correctly. I'm guessing I'll be adding a backing plate or two. I won't be doing that today.
