Thanks haha yeah they are 3.5 inches wide
Haha yeah I scared a lot of people with that :-). I'm now researching superchargers as well as some other options and 5spd swaps!

thanks! I should be doing the vid tomorrow! I its definitely broken in after driving 810mi back from arkansas :P
Sooo little update on the car chewed through the yellow wire in the fender of the passenger side. airbag light came on. connected the wires back and tucked above the punch weld and the light didnt go off. after some research i realize i have to do some work to turn it off Also adjusted the preload on my coils so i wouldnt hit over bumps and adjusted the preload up an inch then lowered my car an inch so it would sit at the same height.....mmm not so much haha! guess i should have factored in the engine weight once i changed the preload. Boo! So tomorrow morning i gotta fix the ride height. Also the person that had my car before was an idiot. didnt know how to use a bloody torque wrench. Stripped three studs on one hub......morons. so ive been very careful with them knowing one day they would probably just strip. Today none of the three would go on properly. Bunch of little things LOL

Aight so I finished tucking the harness. Fixed the ride height. And am getting the wheel studs replaced right now. I was going to do it myself but I made it into the big o tires here and I decided it's not worth it if they snap I will be sol and have a lot more than studs to fix. So to heck with it. :-p
