I probably would have had the same problem...

Finally done! I still need to adjust the ride height and get an alignment though. I also changed my oil and spark plugs. My baby is running like a top now!

randomquickness · 04-04-2010, 03:13 PM

only took 2 pics throughout the install...here they are!

adrean8j · 04-05-2010, 08:39 AM

Look at the muscles flexing from all that effort...LOL...good job bro!

miro2296 · 04-05-2010, 03:07 PM

awesome matt, can't wait to see some pics of the stance and new additions!

randomquickness · 04-05-2010, 03:51 PM

me either! gotta get my wheels on before pics though

and on another note, my stock battery can double as an anchor for my boat!

I probably would've done the same thing with the e-brake if I was installing the rotors. haha Can you write a review of the coilovers. I'm thinking of going from my Eibach springs to coilovers and wanna know what it's gunna feel like.

I haven't driven it much yet since I'm waiting to put my new wheels on and get an alignment but I can DEF say it absorbs the rough areas in the road better and the steering feels a little more responsive to me.

today I dropped the rear spring perch as low as it can go but the back still doesn't seem that low...does it just take some time to settle? could shedding over 30# from the battery really make a difference in how high the back end sits?

adrean8j · 04-08-2010, 10:40 PM

Takes up to a week to settle completely...and don't forget to get a full alignment!!!

got a full tank? that will weigh somewhere around 100 lbs

randomquickness · 04-10-2010, 11:42 AM

this is as low as the back will go so I just tried to level it with the front. I'm sure it will look better when the new wheels go on today!

Update? How is she riding now? And the new shoes?
