Did a couple pulls to see how things were looking. Enough to know I'm getting full boost 300+rpm sooner. Made some adjustments there. I'm also boosting up to almost 24 everywhere again. I'll get it back down to 23ish and see if I can start pulling more timing than before.

Got my inner tie rods changed last night. I don't think the old ones were bad, but I've had them sitting in my garage for a while.

Also gave me and excuse to check things out and install my front control arm bushings:



I need new swaybar endlinks and my passenger's side ball joint is loose. Time to get the Whiteline kit.

Also, got aligned this morning. Showing some cross camber. -2.2 on one side, -1.6 on the other. I need to find a camber gauge and see if I can push and pull and try to even it out.

Whiteline RCK ordered. Hoping to install next weekend if I'm not out of town.

My HKS exhaust has 2 resonators in it. I am surprised yours has none. I guess since mine has a straight through muffler it needed some help whereas the sport muffler can handle it on its own.

Looks great. Keep it up!

Mine's straight through, it's just a big muffler!

I'm pretty sure I'll use a resonated test pipe, too. I'm digging the extra growl, but I'm glad I'm not broadcasting to the world. The car says enough by itself.

Got my roll center kit in. Driver's side is installed. I'll finish up the other side tonight or tomorrow and get it aligned Monday morning. I think the bad pass side ball joint is what has eaten up my tire. Going to try to get new tires in a couple weeks.

Was it a total PITA? I'm about to do these myself.

The RCK by itself isn't too bad to install. If you're doing every bushing in the arm it sucks a lot more.

Nah. Once I figured out what to use to aid in the pressing it was pretty easy. I invested in a press back in December and it's paid for itself. I've read that it's even pretty easy with the giant c-clamp kit that you can rent from Autozone, as long as you can find the one with a lot of pieces.

I haven't done the large rear bushings, yet. I'm going to do the Whiteline that you're running. I sold my PSRS. I didn't want to deal with denting the car.

Terror Rising

iTrader: (26)

Yeah I wasn't a big fan of denting the car, either. With the caster from the Whiteline ALK and the Vorschlag plates the steering is completely different. The large one isn't bad but the front one I couldn't even get into a press so I had to use a long bolt and some custom sleeves. As an FYI, I'm running a 1/8" spacer on the bottom of the Whiteline kit as I didn't want to pinch the subframe as much as it would have taken without it. You'll see what I'm saying whenever you get the kit and go to install the arm. Other than that, keep up the progress on the car!

PS - Let me know when you're ready for my Bilsteins/GTWorx/Tein camber plates. If you're serious about eventually wanting them I'll hold onto them. I'd rather hook up someone on a rebuild journey as yourself than some punk kid around here.
