Damn, I love this car more and more each time I see it. The paint is so awesome, it look black in the recent pictures, but when that purple/red pops, I love it. Keep the pics coming, never get tired of seeing it

You fully deserve that award sir. Best looking car at that meet IMO. Funny, I see $100k GTR's and
Porsches and I immediately look at the SC as my favorite.

Thanks it's nessesary if you can afford air, this car was on coils before and to run around town slammed was ok but when I decided to drive this car on 6 hour trip I felt for my wife hating life riding In a washing machine . I also was exhausted by dodging every little pot hole and change Of payment for 250 miles straight. I made the switch and I love it it handles roughly same as stock struts with espilir springs not as good as bc, I'm fine with that since not like the sc is a 911 or a m3 . Also this kit hangs low good luck trying to ride even semi low And not destroy a front bumper on coils. Overall for what I'm doing I love bags over coils with Elevel.

Thanks everyone, heres a small update. Motor As i mentionioned before started pushing coolant into overflow, once started slightly overheated after a check over i found what i was kinda afraid off"blown headgasket" In every intention of making the Liberty BBQ i tore the car down the week before and got TT headgasket and ARP studs just to find out upon further inspection that block had some pitting so it needed to be dissasembled and decked and then rebuild.....so I decided to go ahead with GTE swap. Started about 4 weeks ago heres some pictures, sorry they are only iphone pics between working on customers cars, working on this on my own i dont have time to take pics with real camera.
