where did u order those lights??? i get pulled over all the time cuz my s**** dim lol
That's gonna be cool, I really want to see this!
Todays update, swapped out ss clutch lines, installed the final AWR motor mount, installed retrofit wiring and passenger side headlight, and of course, installed the trans. I didn't turn it on due to having such new gasket sealant so I'm gonna do that tomorrow.
Tomorrow's work, fill trans with oil, bleed clutch, receive and installed driver side headlight, and throw the bumper back on then enjoy the rideeeee.

Nothing really planned. Just gonna save some money. I might swipe some 17x9s but thats it, I've spent a lot of money over the last few months.

the money you've spent has been way worth it
I've got it pretty much fixed, just waiting for the RTV to dry and man was it a b**** to close the headlight with the extra dry silicone there, now I see why you had put so much more on the second time round. Thank you for the partial refund and I haven't been answering ur txts cause my phone bill didn't get paid on time, however I do get the txts and can read them. If I'm home, I'm usually on aim if you wanna talk.
In other news, filled the tranny up with oil, bled the clutch, threw the strut bar on and topped of the coolant. Once we tried to start her, she started but would die instantly, as if the maf wasn't plugged in. Pulled the maf to see if there was anything going on and there was the problem, I had plugged the pipe with a rag while she sat and forgot to remove it when I put it back together. D'oh!
Anyways, took her for a spin WOWOWOWOWOWOW. This IS NOT my car, it is insane how different this car is than it was back in December. Instant throttle reponse, instant clutch response, VERY little fuel cut(need to tune), grip and straight pull once u take off and boy does she sound different. She sounds MEAN. I am VERY happy with my purchases over the last month.
Things to do before she becomes DD again, replace shot battery and fix/install driver side headlight then throw the bumper back on.
Woop woop!!!!

congrats dude! I need turboz
Took my battery to walmart and after waiting an hr and a half for it to charge, they said I needed a replacement so I got one free of charge 
Through it in, started no problem and my gauges were working properly. I also installed the driver side headlight, hoping it had enough time to dry. They look great, tonight I'm going to aim them then tomorrow the bumper and all go back on

If you ever need a battery buy a walmart one (told this by a guy who works there) because he has not seen one last as long as the warranty. He told me the average was 9-11 months. I read that as never buy a walmart battery because that seems like a PIA. Do not know how true but seems to be true.
