I scream every time I shift. It hurts so bad. People must think I'm crazy.

That's an excellent detailer you have there, Mr. the GreatOne.

kenchan 06-19-2012 04:16 PM

Stillen Side Skirts
Evo-R Front Lip

:woot: :excited:

How's the wind feel in your hair?

shadoquad 06-19-2012 05:13 PM

Also, don't think for a second that m4a1 is stuck in traffic. He's just on a winding road, and that's safe traveling speed for a Mustang in such situations.

Yup, sounds about right for a mustang guy that goes above 5mph. :eek:

m4a1mustang 06-19-2012 05:47 PM

Home now. That sucked. Some days there is just traffic everywhere. There was even a traffic jam trying to get into the main gate of my apartment complex. :mad:

I got my replacement rod-ends and seals/boots in the mail today. I'm hoping with them completely sealed and swimming in grease they'll be good for ~6 months of daily driving before I have to break them down and clean/re-lube.

I lol'ed. Reminds me of a joke a friend told me:
Q: What's a Mustang owner's biggest fear?
A: A curve in the road.

Huck 06-19-2012 06:41 PM

Just for clarification sake, I'm just joking around. I used to have a mustang and I loved it.

m4a1mustang 06-19-2012 06:53 PM

I need to call Honda and schedule a service appointment soon. I hope they cover this window nonsense under warranty. Don't want to have to fix it myself. :mad:

Huck 06-19-2012 07:06 PM

agreed. Windows and the corresponding motors are one of my weaknesses.

370SteeZ 06-19-2012 07:44 PM

Installed Ichiba 30mm & 25mm Spacers on my Z. Keep in mind I'm lowered on H&R Springs... Gonna get coils eventually :shakes head:. The stance is pretty nice, but I'ma lower it to make the fitment look way more flush. Took a few crappy pictures with my iPhone after I installed it, check it out!!

Before Spacers: :icon14::shakes head:

After Spacers: :happydance::yum:

Wheel Offset Specs: 19x9 +22 f & 19x10 +0 r

Huck 06-19-2012 08:15 PM

Looks nice!

happytheman 06-19-2012 08:41 PM

That def looks nice, but you may want to check for rubbing. TGO has 20/25 and is lowered on Tein and rubbed a large gash out of the inner fender liner.

SPOHN 06-19-2012 08:42 PM

New tail lights came in

GaleForce 06-19-2012 08:55 PM

I got the hook for the hatch cover today! Midway Nissan FTW!
