so ill be installing all the new parts i got tomorrow if the flights are not cancelled.

doing the Prokit springs and Tokico shocks with tubular A arms and control arms upper and lower. also C&C plates

while that stuffs out ill put my headers, and o/r h pipe on, then through the new suspension on, and finish up with the SLP LM1s and i have all 4 rims now, so those will be on. and pics will follow soon after. i cant wait im so excited, ive been waiting for this for a long time.


it should be pretty simple, the only delay will be getting everything off since it was driven in snow all its life and all the bolts and ball joints and such are so gunked up it will take all i got to get them out. but one side should be simple since its got a new ball joint already courtesy of a circle k parking

you will spend the whole time putting your headers on.... have fun with the installs

[CobraPhoenix]

ive got every tool imaginable, plus the A arms wont be in when i do it two birds one stone = no headache

trust me, i had the same out look on it before i started

[CobraPhoenix]

i got this, no problems, if i can do my trucks full front brakelines in a cvs parkinglot (tires wore through it and had to snap the metal line to get everything off, and hand bent the new line into place)

and the clutch in the driveway.

and the ball joint of my 96 in the parkinglot of a circle k in the ghetto.

(i got bad brake down luck lol)


then i think this will be ok, with proper tools and a lift

[F8L GT]

lol, i hate you, talking about this makes me want to work on my car lol jk


Wonder what i can go out in the shop and fab up??? HMMM maybe a new filter shield

[CobraPhoenix]

yea i dont have the welding experiance yet, but i will soon, im into it a lot my uncle does it as a hobby, i just havent had time to learn

[F8L GT]

welding is fun, especially TIG welding

I'm stuck waiting for my tax return to do anything on my car...

I want to get the PI Intake, slam it, put on some better brakes, do a J-Mod on the tranny, put in a Prochamber out to Flows, MAYBE some shorty headers, and a C&L.

Oh and 4.10s.

Hopefully after all that I can bet my friends bolt on base Impreza. That's my goal, to beat a Jap car with half the motor I have.

[F8L GT]

you and my both firey, i need to put a new clutch in and order my new huge ass tires lol

[98FireyGT!]

I want to get some big tires but what's the largest size I can put on the stock rims?

I don't want to shell out a ton of cash for rims right now, though one day I'd like some FR500's.

[F8L GT]

275

[98FireyGT!]

Hmm not good enough. I want to one day have some 355 Nitto's out the back. Or the Kumhos that smoke red when you burn them.

[F8L GT]

yeah i know but you asked about stock rims

[98FireyGT!]

Yeah I know I was hoping you'd say something bigger than 275 though

[CobraPhoenix]

my back tires are 285 on 10.5 rims. and i like that lift better than the 4 arm lift i got in my garage

[F8L GT]

shops packed right now

[CobraPhoenix]

is that a spray booth back there... thats the only thing im missing, i wish i had one... but my garage is so packed full of parts and junk and boats its crazy

[F8L GT]

no, no booth. If we ever get dirt in a paint job, its very rare and such a small amount that it comes out while wet sanding

[CobraPhoenix]

right in the open, cool. i wish it was like that were i lived, too much dust and dirt, and its not ventilated enough to close the doors
