New suspension=That new car feeling!

Yeah im pretty wasted on Percoset and booze (just got some wisdom teeth removed) so I cant comprehend if my title made much sense or if I even put I this in the right thread. But I have PICTRES!

OH ****! The new LSD! I picked it up from the postal office and they were like "your the jerk who ordered the bulls head arent you?!" i was all like.... "...maybe?"

LSDizzle

Pile-O-Parts!

Geez I love it when this happens.

Tokico Illumina 5-way adjustable struts

Today.

BOOO! 20 year old suspension parts!

All your base are belong to "THE GOODS"

New Falken Azenis, sure the treadwear is '200' and they are expected to last no longer than 15k miles.... But the time I have spent on them so far has been REALLY FUN!

Strut tower.

New strut tower braces (front and rear)

Ridin' a lil' lower than usual

New **** **** ****

SURPRISE!!!! Look what happened to me the day I finally got all my **** in... Blew out an output shaft, what ******* luck I have.. Back to the drawing board.

Stunt plane @ my base.

B-2 stealth bomber @ my base, who brought that guy to the party huh?

So yeah, I dont even rememvber what I just posted. Mad pictures, and airplanes. Yes. I broke my car and got towed home 15 minutes after my first drive in 2 weeks.
Soon enough it will be ready, and I am going to get back into SCCA, there is a chapter here in Shreveport, LA. And I have like a half-off military discount so its gonna be mad cheap too

well the B-2 stealth bomber's paint actually contains a lot of synthetic materials as well as plain ol' burnt carbon, like the same thing you get from your chimney. it has been found that the dullest most RF radiation absorbing material next to perfect black is burnt carbon.
I would have to say that a nice professionally done primer black with a clear coat would be closest to B-2 , its as simple as that.
also one of the communications systems the B-2 uses transmits low frequency waves throughout the entire body of the plane. If you were to touch a B-2 after it lands and turns off its comm. systems and was grounded you would be zapped to death because the entire surface of the jet is electrically charged... maybe you should wire up some capacitors to your cars body set to discharge like a horse safety fence lol.
sry im drunk, i hope all that made sense

you wont be dissatisfied. as soon as i got all done with work in the shop today i headed straight for the highways, onramp offramp onramp offramp. all smooth, pushed it to the limit and felt it well with these tires. once they get a little heat on em they are predictable, solid (no flex feeling EVER), and squeal when they dont want to give you anymore (which is at much less than SAFE levels of speed on the street to begin with)

I have the same shocks and struts on my GTU. They give a good ride when the struts are set low and when the struts are on 5 body roll is at a minimum. Are you happy with the Tanabe shocks?
