sorry to hear, rominl sad to see someone butcher your car.

Aspguru how goes the install? I wanna know how they handle

aspguru

I will continue the install this afternoon.....

you guys will be the first to know.

it funny you mentioned pearlpower as i was thinking that he was local and i would love to have some help. i wonder how much i would have to pay him??

tonydt1g3r

Lee is a very nice guy not sure if he has the time though. If you were in Florida I would supervise you if you fed me LOL I dont like getting my hands dirty or working when I dont have to Though I do all my own installation I have to wear latex gloves and I dont trust anyone else working on my car then me.

aspguru

I dont even need to talk to him, i have read his paper on SC mods he wrote for his doctorate of lexology here on the forums.

come to think about it, i should sell lee's number, that's going to be a hot buy

just kidding. good luck aspguru!!!

Thanks everyone!

I just finished the front! I am so stupid. you dont have to split the upper or lower ball joints at all. just unbolt the lower strut mount and the strut practically falls out!!

i fininshed the front in 20 minutes!

one bad thing about these is that there is no provision for the speed sensor wire.




you just unbolt this lower mount!

aspguru

OK, got the back done!

I didnt know about those two little bolts behind the plastic inner fender liner which cost me about 20 minutes of grief.





overall this install went pretty good. i wish there was a good guide posted, it would have saved me a lot of frustration on the front.

i still have to install the Blitz exhaust in the morning and put in the 06 fuse block for the 06 tails to get rid of that bulb out light.

then i can get this thing back on the ground and start the adjustment process and take it to get aligned.

i was thinking i could drill a small hole for the shock adjuster into the rear inner panels for each shock. i dont really know what i should set the front and rear dampening settings at. i will probably just start at the softest settings and go from there.

Looks good. That purple really sets it aside from the others. Let us know how the ride and performance is.

Henry, yep, same thing as Toms. No provision for the speed sensor wire.
