Fixed my sloppy shifter. Damn! The comparison is crazy. Changed both bushings and added 2 washers to the u-joint.
Sucks i bought the whole shabang for the u-joint and come to find out it has bearings? So i assume its a ebay shifter. Putting the washers in was pita, it had a collar on there already that i used. Ended up using a flathead and hammerto get the washers in between.
And i never new tightening the ujoint bolt too tight would effect the shifter. Was kinda trippy




Tighten up some bolts and screws. Even added some that were missing in the center dash. Fixed some annoying a$$ rattling.
Now only the shitty ebay hub and passenger door rattle :p

A little update.
So i have almost everything for my suspension rebuild but a huge order from oemacuraparts for all the bolts hubs bearings tie rods balljoints blah blah blah..

This was my first time taking off a caliper completely, painting a caliper, taking off a rotor , and actually undoing a brake line.. so pretty good day, taking off the first caliper and preping took a little longer than I wanted but all in all good experience.

I cleaned out all of the old grease from caliper bracket pins/sliders. Sanded the pins/sliders til super smooth. Will be assembaling everything with new grease when the time comes, the dust boots/gaskets seem fine. Piston went in n out fine and smooth.


The calipers off and before prep-


I did 3 coats, 1 coat every 10mins
Didnt take a pic of them prep...
Heres the first side, not bad but could be alot better-


Heres the 2nd side, better than the first imo. Didnt prep as much surface as before-



And heres the bent free RTAs waiting for the parts.


Debating on SS brake lines while im in there.

I miss my car i havent driven the gsr in like 3-4 months, been driving my eg hatch with like 120hp and a lonnngggg ass CX trans hahahaha

Should of upgraded those calipers to type r ones. I barely noticed a difference when I did mine but its still a nice upgrade.

:rolf: How is it an upgrade if you don't notice any difference? :lol:

Idk lol. There is a difference most likely. I'm more of a numbers on paper guy than trying to convince myself that something is different because I think it feels different.
