(OFF TOPIC) Can we maybe start a 2.0 for this thread? The pages are all jacked, post links and numbers are off, it does weird stuff. Also doesn't work on mobile.

Yeah seems like the forum doesn't handle 1k+ page threads very well. Might be time for a 2.0.

Edit: just noticed the FRS version of this thread has 1300+ pages and not seeing the problems there that we're having with this thread.

That drop and wheel/tire package looks phenominal. Mind sharing details on those? Wheel size/offset and tire size?

It isn't the number of pages that is the issue it is the number of deleted posts. A deleted post doesn't really go away it still is holding a space (the mods can still see them). Get enough of them and all the space holders mess with the page numbers.

Threw in my OEM arm rest last night. I was a little nervous about the install but it ended up being super easy and makes the interior 10x more comfortable. The lack of an armrest was one of the the main things that really bothered me about the car lol.

xenarc · 02-09-2018, 09:21 AM

The arm rest is next on my to buy list. It really sucks not having one.

echo419 · 02-09-2018, 01:48 PM

got a new battery today. wow, I didn't realize how much a bad battery would effect the car. it's kinda hard to tell exactly what's different but it's very much there.

Make sure to order an 8mm drill bit while your at it if you don't have one already. I found it oddly difficult to find individual metric bits at any of the local chain hardware stores in my aera. The instructions also call for a 5mm bit but its really just used for pilot holes so any similarly sized fractional bit should work in its place.

I also found it pretty much impossible to find metric bits locally, so I used a 5/16” bit in place of the 8mm and it worked just fine.

Thanks for the heads up, but have a full set already.

I'm not 100% sober but I've been wanting an UEL header for a while now... So I've just ordered the V2 CNT UEL headers, and man I'm happy but scared that I wasted money that I shouldn't have, lol

Yeah I saw a DIY on here for the armrest and noticed it called for metric bits. Went and found seemingly the only set of metric bits on Amazon, because the hardware stores around here don't have them. Haven't installed my armrest yet because I'm lazy but at least I have the right sized drill bits.

Ordering stuff for your car (or anything?) while not 100% sober is the best though.
