I was actually wondering about this Ken, thanks for the input...I was especially curious because it's a lot cheaper as well and the turnaround for the Evo-r is 10 days to ship?

We don't discriminate based on age, but we do give demerits for immaturity. Good luck on your build. We're in for results.

Good morning guys!

Gmorning guys

My day is off to a great start. As soon as my eyes opened this morn I got a text from my buddy saying everything is a go for my parts install Saturday. We were supposed to have access to a lift but it fell through. He called to tell me screw it we are doing it in his driveway Wont be as easy but it will still be just as fun. The install will consist of the following....

Koni Yellows
StopTech slotted rotors
Project Mu type NS pads
Z1 SS brakelines
Stillen sway bars
Diff oil change to Eneos
Upgrading to Motul RBF600 brake fluid.
I also have some Eneos engine oil but may wait till right before ZDAYZ to do that

Should be a long day of work. Looking very forward to it!!

That's a lot of work for one day. Should be doable with help, a lift would be nice too.

Once it's up and the wheels are off, it makes sense to do all all of those things at the same time!

That is very ambitious and a very nice list of parts -- do not forget an alignment when you are done.

I only discriminate against the stupid -- age, race, gender and sexual orientation do not matter to me.

When I installed my Koni's the alignment did not change. That is no guarantee that you will have the same experience and a 50 dollar alignment is less than $350/tire.

I look forward to hearing your results and I hope that you are taking photos when you do the work. Good luck, man. You are doing a good thing.
