Beach- looks like a fun install. might even recommend you have the alignment shop install it so you don't have to drive out of spec to the shop. Its hard to get it exact without alignment machine.

Here's a list of interior micron filters that fit:
-Fram CF10157 <= in Z now
-STP CAF1766
-Purolator C35479
-WIX 24883

Went for my first "weekend" rip in the car on a nice 32 degree Celsius day! Love the ability of this car so much. First car that I actually turn down the music in to listen to the engine roar.

Snapped a couple pics too... it's no camera like Kenchans, but hoping he likes the pics still

Figured out what's rattling on the driver's side rear of my car.
As I said before, I was real OCD about making sure the spring was oriented correctly, so it wasn't that. I'm embarrassed to say it's the brake caliper making the noises. I forgot to finish torquing it down. I blame my friend who came over to help (drink my beer). Everything I did before he got there is perfect LOL.
