Meeting up with a buddy tomorrow to install these items, plus my new Stillen oil cooler, if time permits.

PSA message

Please avoid trailer hitches left in the middle lanes of a freeway in rush hour or this will happen :mad:

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-O...0/IMG_0451.jpg

I now will have to order a replacement part for about $200 :mad:

And end up with a dinged resonator.

All because someone was too fukin careless to ensure they wouldn't loose the hitch off the back of their truck.

Thank You whom ever you are.

I hope you're a$$ runs over a long spike and it empales the oil pan.

End of PSA.

Must be a crappy day for Z drivers to be out....i had a pickup truck near on trying to run me over while i was doing the speed limit, as soon as he could get around me i got a nice big middle finger

Anybody want to give me a hand in deciding whether to go for springs or coils.

I only plan on lowering my car and inch 1.2 inches at MAX.

some say...go with coils since the springs are built to perform with the shocks. Suspension can fail after a while from the use of aftermarket springs etc. yada yada yada.

Took it on a date... Picked up my date and got about a mile down and my clutch pedal went limp, Literally just drops to the floor. Was able to get it to a parking lot of a hotel...

So I had to get it towed 60 miles back home... I'm glad I still have "AAA".

It's either the Clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder, Just hit 31K miles too... Hopefully carmax's 100K miles warranty (that I paid $1500 for) doesn't put up too much of a fight and I'm only out the $300 deductible.

Suuuure the clutch just happened to go out in front of the hotel after you picked up your date. ;)

That really sucks and hope they dont give you any grief. Time to get the upgraded CSC?

I think the warranty would only cover OEM parts... From what I'm reading on "maxcare" (carmax's aftermarket warranty) they like to give you the run around. :shakes head: so the phone tag begins tomorrow :mad:

Sucks G. Sorry 'bout that. It could have been worse. I've driven around an 8 foot roll of carpet and a ladder in the last month. Getting dangerous out here in CA fwys.
