Don't tell the bank(wife)

best 850 you could spend! It changes the car completely. I can't imagine my car without the better suspension.

Are your shocks adjustable? It's nice to be able to do so.

No, I had a long list so I went with the srt.t's, a little cheaper and that savings covered the adj. panhard bar.

I'm thinking of grebbing the Kooks mufflers as well with mine since I think it will be stupid loud haha.



Very cool! Did you have a fun time driving in a parking lot with cones in 3rd gear the whole time





Looks like a it was a great event with a little bit of everything for everyone.
Loud as f**k is right. And you read my mind - I'm already getting custom restrictor plates fabbed up as we speak. Will get them on today. Saving my vids and pics and review for when I get it all fine tuned. I'm enjoying the heck out of it though. Those sidepipes are essentially WIDE OPEN. Insane volume. Paired with LTs and the Corsa Extremes? No words to describe.

Sorry for the delay in the pics and vids and review. Will finalize it this weekend I hope.

Ok... exhaust setup is complete. I just sat at the shop over lunch while they fabbed up the restrictor plates and put it in.

Omg... NOW my Kooks set up is done. She's perrrrrrrfect. We went with a 3/8" opening. That's the right amount. Growl from the sides, proper breathing front to back - headers to Corsas. It just sounds completely bad a**. Pics and vids this weekend I hope.

sounds good Burton. I bet the fella approaching from the side street was like OMG! is he gonna stop??? LOL

I can see myself considering a similar setup some day. I have enough clearance in front of the rears to hold those side pipes nicely.

Burton, I definitely like the tone much better with the resonators.. They provide a deeper more refined sound IMO..

Btw: I don't remember asking before, but are Niche Milan wheels 20x10's both front and rear or just the fronts and what's your tire size ?


Thanks, Rocky

Thanks Alex!!! Unreal is what I called it too! I absolutely love it.

As for driveshaft, yeah the stock one is an eyesore eh? . But I don't plan on tracking mine so maybe it's ok? Oh well. That street video is the most she'll see LOL

Appreciate it Darren. Yeah there was no one around but that stop sign. So yes I tested the brembo brakes .

Rocky thanks for the kind words. It was a long time coming. The fronts are 20x8.5 I think, or is it x9? Hmmmmm one of the two. Fronts are 255 and tears are 305 on 20x10.

And as to your resonator comment, I'm confused. I have no resonators, been that way for years

Drove from Long Island to Syracuse, 800 miles round trip. The car performed flawlessly. The new springs made the trip much more comfortable. The new tires in front never slipped on turns. Alignment was spot on, averaged 80 plus miles an hour. What a real treat. The only problem, didn't see too many mustangs, my car was lonely. Saw a sweet GTHIG going north on 17 and I blew by a Ruby Red 2015. The top was down on the ride up but we kept it up on the ride down.
:head spin:

Looks and sounds great Burton!

I finally got to do my oil change and chin spoiler mod yesterday! I screwed up my ankle last weekend and it's still messed up, so I just had to go slow and get it done... I ordered race ramps this last week and they got here on Thursday, just in time for my project! Overall, I am loving the look of the spoiler! I have to make sure to come of my driveway at an angle, so I don't scrape, but it looks much better than stock...

Thanks!

They are a bit on the expensive side, but man did they work better than any other ramps I have used! They are made of a material that is similar to spray-on truck bed stuff (very grippy) and is that way all over, so I didn't have to worry about scooting the ramps at all (which was the problem I have had on all my other ones). Drove right up with no problems! And the have a pretty decent sized lip at the end, so I can't imagine going over (or if you did, it would take some effort, LOL).

The ones I got are 2-piece and the back half can come off once I am on there so I can still access the side of the car as well. They are the 8" height and worked great for me (I am not lowered, and they do make a 10" height one). They also make extenders that level out the angle, so if you're super low, you can still use them. I didn't need them, but for people that are pretty low, it's a nice option...

Overall, I like them! I would love them if they were cheaper, but heck, these should be the last ones I need to buy, so that's a plus!

Looks good! I'd love a pair of those ramps too. Jacking up the car just gets old after a while.
