alright finally done i got it done last night but it was pretty late. i had Allex Ward come over and help too... slickwhiteteg he says he knows you... anyway we thought we were done monday night but we forgot a crucial spacer and the struts went straight thru the top hats... so i was basically just riding on springs... anyway we fixed it late tuesday night. and i will post up pics later tonight.

There are a few forsale in kc but I think they are kinda high. I bought mine off ebay (well one of my sets at the time) for 420 shipped and they had brand new tires... I ended up painting them blk but they were in good shape. I sold a set for 300 that the tires were alright on and the wheels werent the best. For that you could get some used rotas... Ur almost to blade price range

^ that would be sick... whatcha got? i just wanna see hat the height would be like with a bigger wheel because the tires on the steelies are too small. so the car sits lower than i would like and scraps on my driveway...
and send me a pm with your number slickwhiteteg.... ill hit you up this weekend if i get a chance.
it is a small world... i met Allex when i dated his younger sister...:???: and his car is a BEAST. he drove me home on monday when we had some complications with the struts mounting to the top hats properly. forgot a crucial spacer that goes under the bushings to the top mount (on the tapered part of the strut rod)... and i drove down the road and the front struts went straight thru the top mounts and i basically rode on springs back to the house that we were working at...
anyway its fixed and im happy... i did some spirited driving tonight and got it out of my system... and it was FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! handled BEAutifully!

ok so the new project is to fix this idle problem... i am fairly sure that its the fast idle thermo valve that needs to be cleaned out... but here are the videos.
and i cant figure out how to post a video... so here are the links.
cold idle (problem)
normal warm idle
let me know what you think.

well obviously... i wouldnt even drive with them on i dont think just incase the unthinkable happened while driving... but a shoot would be nice... maybe we can do a shoot on saturday?btw when i say a bit i mean like for a day... or even just for photoshoot
and i wish i had the money to do anything right now... but i dont. maybe over the summer.a front lip and the right size tires/wheels will make the drop look even better
