Oh, and here's a quick video I took last night while installing the rear sway bar. The neighbors across the street are coll as hell, they're a bunch of rednecks working in airboats and drinking beer and shooting shotguns, so we joke with each other all the time. Their favorite one is that their trucks were made with tools and my car was made with chopsticks, to which I usually reply that his Ford F150 is the one that's been dead in the driveway for two weeks now. Anyway, here's the video. It kinda sounds like crap when it's idling, but when you rev it... Holy hell...

Oh, and no, the sound isn't distorted at all. That's actually how it sounds lol.

Thanks man, I appreciate it! It's been a long slow road but well worth it.




I was surprised too, I've toyed with the idea of doing electronic cutout valves to have it go full open pipe when I'm flying down the road, cause it DOES sound pretty ballsy. Ive also thought about hooking up an AAM mid pipe and short tails to the headers to see how that would sound, but I wouldn't want to run it like that all the time.

Gonna be updating this thread here in the next few days when I get some time, I've been really busy lately. Monday's are my only day off and now even those are filled up with doctors appointments.

Did I mention on here that I got rear-ended the day after I got back from Zdayz? I can't remember. But yeah, now I have doctors appointments all the time for my back which got messed up in the accident. Chick rear ended me at about 45mph, she hit me so hard it ripped my sub out of my Zenclosure box and laid it in the hatch. Now I have to go to a chiropractor and get acupuncture, and the newest thing is getting Cortizone injections in the spine. Apparently I have 10 protruding discs in my spine now, yayyy...

But yeah, I'll post of lots of pics of all the new mods and some of the install stuff soon.

My most recent purchase was SPC front camber arms from DE/Andrew. I really need to fix my camber, it's crazy all the way around since I decided to drop the car a bit more. I'll take pics of that too lol. But anyway, I was running -2.5 and -2.3 in the front, and -3.0 and -2.7 in the rear. Yeah... that's gotta get fixed. I installed the fronts a few days ago, and the alignment guy said he couldn't get one front arm into spec, so now my front is running 0.0 on the driver side and -1.6 on the passenger. This translates into pulling one way when I drive and even worse pulling when I hit my brakes. Gonna pull the arm off tomorrow and see if I installed something wrong. When I was installing it the rubber boot with the peg that goes into the control arm came out and so I put it back in, I'm wondering if I put it in backwards or something. Anyway, they're pretty easy to install so it shouldn't take too long. Hopefully tomorrow I can upload a lot of pics so you guys can see the new stuff

Great car!! How do u like the m7 suspension? How low does it go and ride?

Huck

Thanks sim!





So far I love it, on the soft setting it's really comfy, more so than my swift springs I had. On full stuff it hu gals the road like you wouldn't believe, in conjunction with my Whiteline sways. I could sit somewhere around 25" from the ground to the highest point of the fenders. Almost slammed. I'm sitting at 26.5" right now.

New York City is pothole central all year round. They patch them up but then they just re-open few months later. It cost a lot as well I'm assuming to strip an entire street and re-pave it.

+The way I drive, I'd have to swerve around like a mad person. Also driveways here for restaurant parking lots or w.e are designed horribly. They have such a steep incline that with my stock height I scrape the bottom of my car just trying to get into a burger king, lol.


Every time I go to Orlando, I always comment on how amazing the roads are.
