Are those the used tires that were for sale on the forum? Cause you got a great deal on those.

Also, the debadging video is awesome. I may have to do the same after seeing that. I love the sleeper look.

Only a couple issues today to be resolved tomorrow:
1-Since there is no power steering pump anymore...the belt that came with the TVS was WAY too big......Jessika @ Supercharger Connections called and gave us guidance to shave a couple mm's from the fuel rail to ensure clearance and we got a part number for a shorter belt and belt routing info.
2-the stock O2 sensors would NOT...I repeat.....NOT come out! 4 of them there and with back breaking effort along with a breaker bar...not one would budge at all. We assume there was some welding "sparks" that somehow locked them all in. I had to order new ones for my new headers :(
3-I wanted to powdercoat my strut bar & bolts since I confirmed that it will clear the TVS....and the shop that said they could have it done for me... (40 mins away) would not answer the phone. Finally they called me back and I'll drop off tomorrow

Otherwise it went pretty smooth and I got to do quite a bit myself as well so that was cool to be a part of the build and learn a lil bit.

DUDE!! you're car's going to be frickin' really lightin' up them 305's.






after the weather get's warmer

Congrats on getting this phase of the project going. I got a quick question, I noticed from the pics that your brembo's didn't appear to have the caliper weights on them, could you verify that for me? Do you think we could fit 18" wheels over them?(ok, that's two )

Oh...and that Gopro is just sick. I just invested in 2 camera's over the Summer and now they come out with this? my bank account just keeps getting lighter. :(
