Had my first shakedown in the local canyon after installing all the suspension goodies and fell in love with the car all over again!

Tein compact coilovers, cusco rear sway bar, cusco type 2 front underbrace and I also threw on new pads, rotors and stainless lines while I was at it. Needless to say I had more fun pushing that little econo box through the canyon today then I ever have in my previous car, an Evolution 9 MR.

Went for a spin..... on a wet clover leaf about 35 degrees, bumped it out of gear and pulled out before hitting the curb. Note to self and others: proceed only with caution on wet oily turns if you want your under vehicle to not go out of line permanently.

Went and promoted our convention (MANC) at a Star Trek convention, started to wash car, storm came oh well, always another day for that. Put my new Tokico Blues in the car, so monday I'll take it to get them installed, can't wait to see how the car rides!

Kal-El · 07-11-2009, 08:51 PM

Gave it a wash today. I like to wash it every 1-2 weeks and I do it for free because I work at a car dealer.

My car now travels 600 miles each week so it needs the wash this often.

eTiMaGo · 07-11-2009, 11:04 PM

well done Mikey

Last night I removed my heavy spare wheel (useless anyway, 14" spare would not fit over my aftermarket brakes

), and subwoofer shelf, which is one HEAVY wooden mother... Lost a lot of thump but the rest of the speakers can handle a decent amount of bass

But seeing my rear ride height rise by .75" is priceless

TinyGiant · 07-11-2009, 11:33 PM

my LED arrived for the curtesy lights .. replace the dome with a 15LED bank, hatch light with 8LED bank and the front two click on lights with 6 LEDeach. looks sweet. nice and crips white in there :)

andries · 07-12-2009, 08:38 AM

I have cleaned my cold air intake.

eTiMaGo · 07-12-2009, 08:43 AM

I'm addicted to weight loss, took out the back seat as well (again). Keeping it at the office, I figure if I ever need to give 2 people a ride, it'll be from here

Oh and I put the subwoofer shelf on our postal-grade scale at the office: 17.8kg (39lb) woohoo

BDD · 07-12-2009, 09:11 AM

Installed my SSK... what a difference!

eTiMaGo · 07-12-2009, 09:50 AM

Phaeton · 07-12-2009, 10:36 AM
