Today after work I went for a “parts run.” I found off of Craigs an awesome new suspension setup that I’m eager this weekend to try.

The sum of what I bought was:

• A set of Front & Back Koni Yellow Adjustable Shocks
• A set of H&R Racing Springs
• A front & rear under carriage sway bar set.
• (bonus) Two JG Forged Lightweight Cam Gears

All for a OMG only that?! Price.

The best part of it, however, was a chance to meet another tuner from Portland. What I like about builds is both the parts and all that, but also the people you meet along the way.

A new crowd of people to meet!

Next on my list of stuff though is as follows (in no particular order)

~A Brembo Big Break Kit
~New Brake Pads
~Powdercoating my Calipers
~(eventually) Installing a 6-Puck Clutch kit
~Skunk2 Single Bend Short Shifter + Type R shift knob (Ordered and Shipped)
~(Either) A Pair of Crower Camshafts A Garret t3/T4 Turbo Kit fabrication/install (This one is the biggest decision requiring lots of research/thinking 🙂 )
~(If Camshafts) Upgrade my generic C.A.I to a AEM Short Ram with Dust Cover.

Back Burner Stuff:
~Darker Window Tinting
~Interior Work
~Paint Restoration.

Lotta stuff to do… Lotta new people to meet– I can’t wait!
