Yes, that is where it's jacked up and has jacks under.


heres some replacement suspension for now until I get some true coilovers.
much better than stock struts and cut springs!!

just an update, put all the new suspension stuff on and theres alot of play in the steering. The power steering hoses were cut and were never looped, so I think the steering rack is messed up, I looped them myself and put fluid in it to keep it pressurized like it should. It still didn't do much for it. So I'm going to swap in a manual steering rack from an eg. We shall see how that goes.
Other than that I put a stock ecu map onto the Kpro and started and ran it, but it was way to lean even to idle, I added 70% fuel to the full map and it idles fine and is cruisable to get a tune, other than that it will still go lean in the upper rpms.

Well ive rearranged the whole front end so I only drove around the block on them cause the alignment is so far off its crazy lol.
But just from that I can tell you thwy are gonna be 500x better. Right when you take em out the box you know they are the real deal.
Heavy duty!!!

Those bolts look huge. I hope they don't bust thru the shock towers like I've seen S2/blox kits do. Nice teggy tho. keep it up.

Yeap. Went an got an alignment yesterday. All is straight but now im positive the guy before me has the wrong axles in. They are binding like mad.
Gonna take them out and measure them and probably get some base rsx ones from o Reillys now.
Time to make a trip to the exhaust shop. Open header is too much haha.

Side note I also ordered a new tire for the bike!! Went with a drag radial lol

Alright, it's been a bit since I've updated.
I got wheels for the car, got exhaust put on, replaced the drivers side axle, and started removing weight and horrible tint.
meanwhile the Kpro decided to take a crap and is now sent back to be fixed and am waiting on it to get back!

picked up some gsr blades.


decided the car was heavier than I wanted and the struggle for weight loss is real.


and got around to removing some tint cause you can hardly see through it ESPECIALLY the back glass.


and heres me and the little bro at sonic gettin those cheap cheap drinks.


I don't like riding without a hood but all I got is this fiberglass one with a hood scoop and its silver, but Ill probably paint it and make use of it since its light as crap.
