Installed my Password JDM Strut Tower, Greddy EVO3 exhaust, and put on my Eibach Sportlines. We forgot to take the silencers out prior to taking the car off the lift so that will be done tomorrow.

I just finished a drive in wet/damp. Either my car's VSC wasn't working, or it was so lenient that I corrected the oversteer before it did. The Michelins' traction in wet was downright pathetic.

Then I found an empty parking lot, turned everything off and had some fun. I didn't experience the progressive break away that everyone's saying. I had to apply opposite lock quickly (playing a lot of GT5 did help apparently), then straighten even more quickly as the tail suddenly regained traction.

...someone must have put some glue on my tires or something because I actually have to try to get them to break free.

Did my DRL delete, Grimmspeed Master Cylinder Brace, and Flossy Shift knob. (I painted the pattern and logo red myself, Flossy only does the etching.

Pulled my grill off, made a cover for the crash beam. It looks fantastic. Tomorrow making a guard to protect the radiator.
