You really just gotta fenangle (did I just make that word up?) it in there. It helps if you have someone underneath the car to kind of guide it and then sort of hand it down to them.

yeah pretty much just alot of rocking back and forth and pushing than it should go through but id def recommend having someone underneath to hold it in place when you get some bolts in i did it alone and it sucked

Mr. Red Pony · February 5th, 2012, 02:29 PM

Take out engine.
Install headers.
Reinstall engine.
???
Profit?

Mr. Red Pony · February 5th, 2012, 02:30 PM

staggered saleens, still deciding on tires because i've got a buddy with a really good discount on any tires locally at the shop he works at. so i ordered just the rims. as far as tires go, im going with nitto 555's or bf goodrich g force kdw's

i plan on getting the billstein kit from AM as well in the near future to finish the look with a 1.5" all around drop.

edit: sizes of tires i want to run are 245/40/18 up front, 275/35/18 out back.

Do it yourself. It is extremely easy. All you need is a 7&8mm, screwdrivers, and a pair of needle nose. And a jack. If you need a cable I have a UPR adjustable cable still in the wrapper. $10 plus shipping just for you.

I would go wider all around, I have 245/40/10 htr2's on my saleens and they are stretched some, no rim protection at all, I am gonna go 255 on the fronts next time. On a 10in wheel a 275 isn't much tire, next time around I will be getting at least a 295 on the back.

Plus 305's or 315's look wayyyyy more bitchin than the 275's.

hmm. thats a good point. i just dont want to have any rubbing. maybe 255's would be good up front and 298 or 285's out back

Unless your slammed on coils you won't rub with a 255 up front. I only takes scratching up those beautiful wheels once before you realize you wish you had more rim protection. 255's up front and 295, 305, 315, or 335 in the rear would be sickk
315's

275's (my car)

Skargon · February 7th, 2012, 12:54 AM

BECAUSE RACE CAR'S ONLY NEED SINGLE EXHAUST DUHH

When I bought the car it came with the exhaust it has now, dynomax welded in with a nice tip welded on. Ever since I have had it I have been waiting for something to rust threw on it, and it finally has so now all I gotta do is wait for the bank account mod to catch up and I'm thinkin dual spintechs
