Do you you have any video/sound clips of your exhaust?

I want to run a similar setup.

I had a 25mm spacer in the rear to fit those, so they were 17x9 -8, with a 215/40/17 DZ101 tire.

I used to run a 17x9 +20 up front with a 235/40/17 RS2 tire with no issues at all. I had to notch my front fenders and stuff, but my ride height was lower than most people's.

I've been running -3 degrees of camber all around, but I'd love to raise that to -4 in the front next year.

Turbo 2, I'll try to take some pictures tomorrow, but it's pretty damn bad. The driver's side frame rail is like two inches higher than the passenger side, and only comes back into line halfway down the car. The strut tower is much higher on that side as well, and the subframe shifted on it's mounts. That's just what I can gather from looking at the thing from a distance, I haven't even tried unbolting anything yet, haha.

I'm really excited to build this Turbo car for next year, only I have no money to do it with, and no place to put it together. That makes it more exciting though, right?! If I miss the first event next season, I'll be pissed.

I've always looked out for people when i can.

I had no idea you were n/a! Very impressive sliding in your vidz!

Make it happen for next season!

They'll probably think you killed some one and they bled all over your engine.

all you did was change out a coolant seal right? I have to take my motor apart next week and this will be my first time. Any advise for a newb engine rebuilder. My 3mm apex seals are warped again and they need to be freshend up. I rather do it my self this time around. I've already took this motor out to get rebuilt once and this time i plan to do everything my self. Did you use any guides or write ups to help you out?
