spent today working on my car and all i can say is i am dissapoint
anyway got my 5-lug front hubs on
put on my subframe collars
with the help of this little guy Matco tools 1/2" electric impact gun it has 740 foot pounds of torque!
old opens diff
new j30
yea reason why im all upset is well i keep fixing **** and other **** keeps braking like now omw home i feel a horrid vibration in the front end of the car at about 40mph and its late and i cant check it now. but i think its either a bent hub or a loose hub but i made sure it was tight so its probably bent..... wtf just so pissed not even funny

fixed it.... i somehow seemed to have 1 caliper bolt loose... i still have a vibration but at 60 and not even clsoe to how bad it was but i know what it is, its a combination of needing my tires ballanced not having hubcentric rings and my rotors are warped

hey there mr Turbo havnt seen you in a while
installed my rear 5-lug soooo easy with air tools
was at work and spent all day working on my car i took my coolant line to the turbo off to try to repair it but it was futile the leak is coming from the fitting itself not the hose so i need to order a new hose
so i installed new Hawk HPS brake pads front and rear and i resurfaces the front rotors and put new rear rotors also got the coil overs installed!
also you guys might now care but i know Spen does i retrofitted my kouki lights with S2000 projectors and used OEM Phillips bulbs and Matsu****a ballasts
but sorry i didnt take any pics of the process since it was so dusty i didnt wana mess up my camera >.<
basicly how the car is sitting right now. i need to roll the rear fenders because of my giant 285/40 tires lol
