joey you should have gone coilovers

if i could go back... i would have!

[Bio248]

coilovers aren't nice for a daily driver unless you actually put some money into them. pillow ball mounts pretty much suck.

you're better off how you are right now unless you like to rebuild your suspension every year or two.

So i was having an issue with my tires hitting the ZZP control arms i installed.. so i ordered some Spacers from JEGS that came in the mail today.

going to install them and hopefully fix this issue!

All the red, minus the interior seats are gone, im replacing it with Chrome ****. also re doing my dash in carbon fiber

[Sandman]

If you're going to get a carbon theme then please get them dipped in a carbon pattern. It looks much nicer, you can get any color, and it doesn't look as shttty as vinyl does. I don't remember if it was on here or another forum but a guy with a G8 got his interior panels dipped and they look awesome.

well my buddy is getting us a empty building (former shop) with a lift and we are going to start taking it apart on Monday.

while the engine and trans is out of the car its getting painted by another buddy of mine at Ace in the Hole autobody. and the Block is going to be cleaned and aligning at Godwin Machine shop and built up to a longblock then im reinstalling it shortly after (2-3weeks ish) and having another Florida GTP member come down and tune it while we button the last bit of stuff up.
