Question, what does this stuff do for the car? I'm not a mechanic but I hear lots of things on the type of mods you're doing. Just want to know what you're seeing when doing this?


Edit:


I'm an idiot... I saw the post on my phone and thought you had done all of that..LOL

Halfshafts are beefed up so they will not snap when launching or even roll racing with a bit higher horsepower. More prone to happen on manual launching. Driveshaft + loop, also a safety feature. CB005, lockout kit, helps a lot with wheel hop. One of my favorite mods on the S550's. Diff bushing kit helps with wheel hop and rear stability. Let me know if I can help you get any of these modifications.
FIVE_LITER, nice mods :)

Pretty much what logan said. These aren't the most exciting mods out there to be doing but I'm just trying to increase the durability and safety of the car so it doesnt break and I don't die when I run it at the track.

Take note fellas, this is how its done. Always build your car for worst case scenario.

After having my car for a year, I decided it was overdue to get detailed. I'm in love all over again!

Agree. It is time for me to get a paint correction and detail now that all the work has been done now.

I watched two females from our cleaning company, driving (barely, terribly) their company Corolla, heading towards the parking spot next to my car. I made a bee line for them as they were parking, and just as the passenger was opening her door, scared the living hell out of her catching the door before it hit my car.

Then I moved my car.

Two cleaning ladies lost our door key, broke the blinds, and spilled oil down the front of my custom made floor speaker, ruining the painted finish and almost the drivers too. Then lied about it all. Almost $1000 worth of damage. And I will have to sue.

So much for being careful.
