yeah new dampers springs and tires went on last weekend.

liquid filled dampers are very very different driving sensation. thats for sure.....im still relearning my car. plus today is the first day i have had her since saturday. nck was driving her.

the fenders need to get rolled int eh back BAD!!!!!

feels good though.

im moving middle of the month so finances are a little tighter this month than normal hence me having to buy parts in pieces instead of all at once.

so hopefully around the 15th ill be ordering all the bushings and tie rod ends and so on......

too much **** to do before its time to hit the track. i dont think ill be able to buy the rebuild parts for the diff before i go. so fingers crossed. lets hope it doesnt go out while im up there or on my way home lol

LOL nice to hear that you do feel the big difference of the new liquid setup and having to relearn your car is kinda of a cool/ Good thing.
I am how ever against the fenders getting rolled!!! yuck!!!! not done right can really **** up the cars original fenders.
with the new bushings you will fall mad in love with not have all that nasty noise(don't know if you have them but i imagine you do)
as far as buying all things @ once is always nice but you notice the gradual upgrade alot more and learn to appreciate them greater then slapping on a whole bunch of **** at once and not even know what your base point was to being with. I have always been a fan of gradual progression of upgrades any ways. specially when it comes to suspension works. lets not even start talking about the power issues there are no ends only beginings!!!!


good luck and keep us posted, cheers

i have no choice on rolling the fenders.....i cant even drive down the freeway without rubbing issues.
