New Goodies Arrived:

I need to paint the inside of the bumper area black, but I really like it so far. It also quieted down the cabin a lot. I will be putting the Cusco Brace in it's place.

Edit: Just ordered a test tire to see if it will fit with stock struts.

Nice build man, I can't wait to see how it sits when your done installing the wheels.

DustinS · 01-10-2015, 03:46 PM

Thanks. The wait is killing me. I still have to get the locking lug nut set, and ARP studs.

DustinS · 01-13-2015, 11:18 AM

Looks like I'll be ordering Coilovers Friday. That can't come soon enough. I also haven't heard anything about my tires. Going to call today and see where they are at with my order.

Edit: Looks like the email with the tracking info hadn't been sent. So he resent me the email. Will be here thursday. So far Onlinetires has been good. Ready to order the rest of the tires as soon as I get confirmation they work.

Edit of the Edit: I am going coilovers, so the the tires will fit. Guess those three should be on their way soon

DustinS · 01-15-2015, 02:51 PM

Small update for sure, but I am excited none the less.

Talked to Fortune Auto and they suggested 7k Front springs and 8k rear springs. Those should be ordered tomorrow morning, and the other tires will be ordered tomorrow morning as well. (along with the ARP studs/Locking lug nuts)

Carlos_M · 01-15-2015, 02:53 PM

Any reason why they suggested those spring weights?

Thanks, man, that is definitely useful! Coil-overs are like black magic for me and I am trying to get as much info as possible. Keep up the good work.

The wheel/tire combo is 2.8lbs heavier per corner than stock. Not too bad. I am wondering if I will notice it while driving.

Tired ordered, ARP Studs ordered, Fortune Auto 500 Coilovers Ordered

Updated a lot of image links through out the pages, and Updated the first Post. Mostly Changed/added parts to the list.

DustinS · 01-18-2015, 02:14 AM

Diff Bushings installed, as well as Cusco Subframe brace.

Really looking at the Speed by Design Turbo kit. Great price, uses the OFT for tuning, and only a few hours away.
