It is a lot of fun to drive. She needs more h.p. cause that's as fast as I could get her to go thru that section.
Need to do some shock changes but I don't really know where to start. It felt good didn't do anything that made the car uncontrollable.

I think ill start with adding some rebound to the rear. Didn't bottom out either end of the suspension yesterday. Had .75"-1" of clean bump shaft showing.

Thanks Nick

I really like it now. 2yrs of being frustrated and ready to throw it in the scrap bin is finally behind me.

Couldn't tell you how many issues I had getting it to where she is at this point. And just little things. I do this work for a living and I still get had by gremlins.

That thing is horrible!! You should just give up now. Give it to me and I'll make sure it's properly disposed of.

Your welcome.

Very very nice!

Is it just me or does that drivers side front shock shaft completely rusted. It looks brown and rusty. New dampening technique? :D
