i plan on paying bills since i avoided doing that and bought cool parts with my paychecks instead lol. but i did buy another diff mount and i'm looking into rear subframe bushings. not bad *** but definately a upgrade. well maybe, just maybe, i can save enough of my taxes to buy JTP knuckles, now those ARE cool $hit.

Lol. That's whats up. I'm sitting tight on mine for a bit. Entirely too much going on to get a solid budget. So far, tooling and raw materials are on my list.

My have-to list:

New cone filter (mine is fucked and is probably a huge restriction ruining my gas mileage and i dd)

Delrin LCA bushings

EBC front rotors

Hawk hps pads.

SS braided lines

DIY engine torque damper and/or hockey puck mounts. I already have some heims i scored for free to make a dampener out of an old oem sublink.

5pt and harness bar.

Tires n wheels, nothing special. Just something to slide and daily on without spending absurd money.

I think I can still get away with stiffing the Government for last years back-taxes and get some drift wheels and ****. Got JICs on the way as soon as I get paid for the Cobra 5.0 swap sitting in my garage.

I got caught and the irs went back ten years and hit me for every time i didn't claim stock i sold..... *******. As if paying $10k-$12k a year in taxes isn't enough.

Taxes are stealing

pbm coils yo, working a deal out. I don't think I'll have enough for the camber links just yet, still waiting to hear things on the battle version adj camber bar anyway though. I only worked 6 months last year so I f'd myself this tax season.

on top of my list: new front diff mount and snubber ( mines shot), the camber links/bar, dtss elims and rear subframe bushings in general, front tie rods, maybe a t2 rear end with a s4 t2 diff I can shim (so I can be rid of my na with shot synchros basically, have t2 tranny sitting here), then the t2 swap/rebuild but suspension>power.

I'm going to blow my na motor this year, I know it. I'm gonna be out every night practicing until I reach the limits of na power.

A full exhaust system and a radiator.
The two main things I lack for having my vert back together.

i havnt tested them first hand but people seem to love them, theyre cheap as hell and theyre not ****. cheap and quality, with this much adjustability and slamitude, are usually never in the same sentence when it comes to coilovers. im sure theyre no DG5s but im no pro drifter either lol. im sure they get the job done.
