Modifications



Engine

Borla catback

SSA headers

Duffer ported Stg 3 UIM

Grimmspeed ported LIM

Custom ported TB, soon to upgrade to 70mm NGM Billet TB along with a stg 4 UIM.

Suspension

HSD coilovers

VPW endlinks

I'm from Michigan.



I'll have new pics up within the next week or so.. I went to put my coilovers on last Friday and there's a damn bolt that's seized on the strut. Impact, breaker, and all my muscles weren't able to break it loose. I gotta take it to a shop and have it torched out.

In the pics that i've posted.. I have CM springs, 1.8" drop all around. Painted F/L2 wheels, and stock brakes.

Coilovers, Kosei's, and my wilwoods should be installed by Friday if nothing goes wrong.

I got the Kosei's because the stock wheels wouldn't allow the wilwoods to fit. Not really a fan of aftermarket wheels, but if they serve a purpose, like being able to run larger brakes.. i'm all for functionality. It doesn't hurt that the wheels are 15.4lbs ea. haha

Very nice! You'll fit in quite nicely. Plenty of "go" people around here.

Me at Grattan raceway.

First car I passed was a Saturn.. Astra? The second was a Kia Forte, third was an MR2. After I pass the MR2 the car started to overheat on the straight, I pulled off.
