Hotchkis Swaybars F/R. Thinking about replacing the End Links at the same time??

What do you guys think about the End Links? Is it neccessary? Will the OEM End Links hold up?

Unless you're doing some major tracking, the OEM ones should hold up just fine. That being said though, might as well change them out in one swoop instead of going in there again later down the road just for endlinks

Looking to get an oil cooler and the zspeed engine splash guard. I suppose if I find a good enough deal on SPL camber arms/toe links and some coil overs I'll jump on those too.

Meulen · 11-27-2013, 06:14 PM

Hey nothing wrong with MAFs and spacers they are the essentials. Were they also running specials on the drop in filters?

Plus you likely got the swanky Z1 sticker. Good for 5 bonus HP. ha ha.

It was killing me to hold off pulling the trigger on the BF deals but I am saving for tires, exhaust, and coilovers.

I think they did have the K&N drop ins on sale, I'm just not a fan of them. I would've liked to have bought swift springs, evo r front lip and side blades, and the shine auto rear lip but I had to resist.....for now.

What exhaust and coilovers are you looking to get?

Is there a shop in our area that we could trust with a FI install?

Other then px?

Hey jlo you might find another shop on thechicagogarage.com/forum/

The vast majority focus on domestics but seem happy to work on imports.

I think outside of PX you would be hard pressed to find another one the specializes in Zs to that extent.

Jim,

If I were considering dropping $8k plus installation cost I would consider shipping the car to Fast Intentions or GTM.
