2009.11.14 UPDATE: installing 9" rear, bigger front discs, changing rear drums to discs, race suspension, PSE 15" T/A wheels... pix coming soon.
Eagle cast crank cracked along the front journal... replaced with a Eagle forged crank.
2009.03.27 put some BFG Radial T/A's on the back and getting good traction... hasn't broken loose on me since i put 'em on. i removed the front bumper and GT fog lights and corral.
2009.03.24 bought a carbon fiber racing apron from Maier Racing not too long ago... mocked it on the car and fenders are not contoured right, so they need some tweaking. i also installed a MOROSO coolant overflow reservior. i'll take some snaps. i also rolled 3 out of 4 fender lips. i've been busy with work, studies + family.
2008.10.19 just bought a Percy's WheelRite + looking forward rolling fender lips on all 4 corners & doing the Arning/Shelby Drop. a vario-centric camber kit + adjustable strut rods may be ordered.
