Well, been a good week!
Quite a few things done to the car in the past week and a half or so. First, OTTP intake:



then got the LSD Trans back in after this repair was done



when the transmission was put in, i installed my GMPP clutch kit that my Dad got me for Christmas.

Then a very very important thing today that have made the car 100x better in corners:









I really did not even get them for the cornering, purely to prevent this:



that squat has been killing me at the track.

Here is how much stiffer the car is now. Before:

now, i need need to decide if i want to go another half inch to an inch lower. i cant make up my mind









Big thanks to ls1fbody for hooking me up on the coilovers!

you don't want none of that car. Trust me. If it doesn't directly relate to going retarded fast, it's not in the car.

i have those pants. nice fender humpage. and i hope you're enjoying your samsung.


hahah. those are good videos though, shows coilovers aren't just for adjusting ride height. but i think it could go about .750" to an 1" lower
