DAY 2

With the wheels and tires on the car, I couldn't wait for today to install the Eibach pro kit. The drop definitely improves the look, and stance of the car, but the real improvement is in the handling department. Right away I noticed how much more planted the car is in the corners, and doesn't want to roll as much. I also did weigh the difference between the stock springs and the pro kit. With the front pro kit springs being about 1 pound heavier a piece, and the rear pro kit springs about 1 pound lighter a piece, its pretty much a wash.

The Install was really not bad at all. Definitely something anyone can do in their driveway on jack stands.







I've heard a few people ask if anyone has lowered just the front, so I took a quick pic before installing the rear springs.





And here's final results!

That simple spring drop does wonders for both the ride and handling. Looking really good!

Thanks guy's. The weather sucks today so I couldn't bring her to work today to do today's mod, so I'll be doing it as soon as I get home. Looks like I might be working around this weather all week since my baby doesn't go out in the rain.

Today's mod was Steeda's Trans mount insert. super easy install here. took me about 15-20 minutes.

Didn't get to take it out for a test, cause of weather, but hopefully it'll dry up by tomorrow.

DAY 4

It's been a long day but I got it done. Today, or I should say tonight's mod was a carbon fiber driveshaft from DSS.

Install was easy and took about a hour and a half. Also weighed the factory shaft at 36lbs, and the DSS shaft weighed in at 18lbs with flanges.

Can't wait to drive it. Damn this weather!

How do you like the Steeda trans mount? I'm waiting for mine to get here, hopefully for this weekend.

DAY 5

Today I installed Raxiom's Tail light sequencer harness's. If you have a 2010 or later these will make your brake lights, and hazards blink sequentially.

Another real simple install. If you have a 401a car you will need to remove the sub to install the passenger side harness.

Unfortunately I haven't had the chance to drive it yet between work, doing these installs, and the weather. But as soon as I do, I will update the post.
