    Never said I did the install. Albany speed shop did it. For the cost of the parts I wanted to make sure it was done right the first time. I still have plenty left to do next spring when more stuff comes in.

    Clutch...is just not my bag. I figured they would have to remove a good chunk of all that I was having replaced so they did it.

    If I had done it...car would have been back on the road in the Spring.

    No hard pipe from the MAF to the TB?

    Where's the upgraded ECU...?

    You didn't do the work?

    Shame; shame.

    Doing a clutch would suck anyway in that car. It's not extemely hard but just really time consuming and with no lift.........forget about it.

    Okay...so I want to replace the ASA AR1's on the car, they are pitting horribly and look like ****.

    I could sand them down, repolish the lip and clear them, but at that point I could buy new wheels. And I could buy the ASA's again...I guess but they will do the same thing...again. I've done the reading they just suck at the lip.

    I want the same style...


    I found the Enkei Lusso, 18x7.5 42mm offset, I was going to add 10 and 12mm spacers to give me a little more stance look over what I have now...BUT these have no lip to them.




    Do I take the chance on the Enkei's? Do i rebuy the ASA's? or do I hunt hard for some 18x8 35mm wheels with a 5x108 or 5x112 bolt pattern and use wobble bolts?

    OEM stock 2 Piece wheels from BBS are 17s, but they have a nice lip to them, they pit and peel sadly.

    Wish I could find the ASA AR1s somewhere else besides TireRack. I can get the Enkei's right now for $650 shipped. Tire Rack will be around $701
