Went for a drive, it seems my front driver-side caliper is sticking. FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU
I'll take it apart this weekend, hopefully it just needs a good cleaning...

Buying rotors tomorrow and Sunday is full of repairs and my lines finally go on. Amy's jeep gets a new alternator and belt that same day. EBC pads on the front and some weaver silver pads for the rear until I can order EBC for there.
Still waiting to hear from matt v about my fog bulbs. Just may throw on my replacement fogs to replace the broken ones as I don't use them anymore since getting the projectors on. Also checking fuses for the hazards tomorrow after work.

finally installed my projector headlights and test fitted my hella horns
So found out that the HKS does not work with the supercharger. The Greddy I have stays open at idle as the HKS does not. SOOOOO I decided to try out the HKS AND the Greddy. lol Lets just say it works...but it is a waste. lol So ill be switching the fittings and what not.
=( What a waste of money. lol

ya im thinking the same thing, but not sure how to move them around more with my fans being right there.. thats on the to do list for the weekend.
just noticed in pics after a few hours of sleep that they are uneven as well so they will be moved..
i have not... i have all of the interior stuff left to do. but i can tell you that short shifter works good...

not yet, but i ran a pusher fan on my truck and a few local high HP cars are running smaller fans than I am so I'm not too worried. these fans have more cfm rating than our factory fans

I did what you everybody said. now the top is in the otherside of the tab.... my car it feels much better but I am hearing a clunk on my rear passenger side. and also i noticed the black clamps of the bar are separate about 1.5" from the bushings.. do you recommend to use those awr bar spacers?
those ones:

Hey bikingpro,
Looking nice and clean under the hoodie! Is that CF grill tough to install? It seems easy, but didn't look like there were tabs on the bottom that hook into the front bumper like the stock grill. I'd like to get one, just wondering what I'm in for.
Thanks!

the CF grill has the 3 holes on the bottom just like the OEM grill, its a DGM so the fit is better than the ebay garbage..

Ahhh...got it! I'll google DGM, cause the only one I could find was the Ebay garbage.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Cool (pardon the pun), that's reassuring. My buddy is hooking me up with 12" and 10" SPAL fans and I want to mount them pusher style and removed my A/C condensor, or whatever that radiator looking piece is, so they will be mounted directly to the 2-1/4" aluminum radiator. I figure that cooling system will be efficient enough for the 2.5l V6.
Thanks, mate. Looking really good, man.

ya mine are 10" and 12" mishimoto, for right now they are connected to the ac condenser... i would think you would have no issues when mounting directly on the rad.
