Plans for your VQ this spring?
I plan on taking it out in 2 weeks. I am installing front SPC shims, SPL spring bucket replacement arms, lock out bolts, alignment, install sways, install exhaust and install my one of a kind front lip. Gonna be a great season!
Here's a video to get this going lol. MontrealVQ Winter 2012 2013 Reel - YouTube Last edited by nogoodname; 02-17-2013 at 01:32 AM. Reason: No idea how to embed lol |

I'm planning on getting my exhaust reworked, removing the resonators and getting it to bolt up to my down pipe. Finally getting the body kit painted, and taking a trip to see Vince at R/T Tuning to get my car tuned.
I think thats it unless I can work out some kind of sponsorship.

My plans are to do instals of the parts I have had laying around since last season
- I still need to instal my nav bypass and rear view camera from bdl99 @ thecarkitcompany - I have hood struts coming from kellyefields this week - I am waiting on a response from CFE so I can place an order on a few interior trim CF pieces - I plan on ordering takeda CAI with tax return - Buying probably just tires for now (PSS), thinking I will wait on getting the wheels until I can afford to get some really sick ones! I would rather just do it once then buy now only to replace them again in 1-2 years - I am also trying to get a GTA group buy for oil coolers going

All the parts are starting to arrive. I now have a cabin filter, front lip and front camber shims. SPL toe arms are coming in on Friday. Swaybay and catback are soon to arrive also. Your nav bypass nod shouldn't take long. It's fairly easy to remove the center console. |

the bypass and the camera shouldn't be to hard. I have opened up the center console once before with no issues. I am thinking that while I do the camera instal I will do some sound deadening while I have everything opened up in the back, I have wanted to do that for a while now.

Yeah in the spring an fall you might need to make a block-off plate depending on the size of the oil cooler, shouldn't be an issue for us in the summer. That's based on a 25 row (most popular down south).

You've got some serious patience, I would have had that thing put on a long time ago. I get the itch every day waiting for my car updates.
