The suspension on these cars can kiss my ass!!!!!! (gun) (argh)

suspension -->(chair)<-- me


(silly)

It's not actually difficult, just a couple of stupid things holding me back.

Suspension endlinks - OMFG pain in the dick!
Both bolts that holds the ABS sensor for the rear brakes broke when I was removing them. That made taking out the rear shocks/spring interesting. Now I've got to grind off that bit of bolt that is sticking out of the bracket that the rear brake rotors mount to. Once I'm done with that I can finish mounting the rear shocks/springs and change out my brakes and rotors then I'll be done.

and my very own AL bracket for my stupid front plate...i had it in the window, but i'm fast becoming a magnet for ricer racers and cops, that damn CF hood did it...oh well i'm keeping it! sorry for the cruddy pics, i just woke up and should have moved outside for some better lighting conditions...
haha, no more than most of us i think! :D

looks great mark - but i demand a full frontal pic so i can get a good look at those grills in your car. haha

(btw, you never answered my question.... wtf is that pink thing that was in the box with the midpipe? lol)

Please take a pic of that tool... I NEED one, Kartboy hangers are sweet as hell but at the same time they ruin my life. I actually think all my stock hangers are still on right now, I just pushed them up on the metal arms haha.
chris... ask and you shall receive

it's just a 'monster-garaged' set of standard pliers, haha but it works like a dream. i may have to see if they can make one for me ;)

I know EXACTLY what you mean... this happened to me, but thankfully only on the one side. Ended up using a crow bar to pry the stock strut out and jerry-rigging up something for the abs sensor cord. But yeah, does make it a little interesting...
 
oh, i guess i should stay on thread topic too...

put 1000km on her yesterday - along with about the same number of bugs - doing a little mountain run :)

i know :) i want to call them tomorrow to find out if there's any way they might make me one... if they are willing to do so, would you like me to see if they can make one for you too?
 
Autocrossed today, it was awesome :D Videos later, I'm tired.

Mine needs a wash again... because yes, black mica is the devil when it comes to staying clean.
