Replaced my rear diff and trailing arm bushings with energy suspension red bushings. Also finalizing my tune. Just about ready to hit the strip now.

got my evo back from tuning tech even with wrong plugs in, a setback from mine loosening up even with a tq wrench, 91 octane pump gas, 410 hp 342 tq 25psi. I like it im happy for now, and then next week goes back to have right plugs installed, and some race gas put in to have the phantom knock diagnosed.

Put some industrial strength paint stripper on the Evo 5 Brembo's I bought. I only stripped the rear calipers tonight, and they probably need another coat of green Japanese goo anyway. Surprisingly labor intensive process compared to stripping acrylic paint off of wargaming miniatures.

Yeah, I can see a shift light being a major DO WANT.

As for me, my parts came in. Two tophats, two wheelbearing/hubs. Or at least that's what SHOULD be in the box.
