that's alright Tomo, we understand you are trying to get a little poooooooooootang. [IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG]

Anyway, who will, if anyone, will be at Flexivity tonight and what time? Most xceed guys will be at Milan dragway but a few of them said on xceed that they will be up at Flexivity tonight.

UPDATE:Looks like I got some xceed guys wanting to meet at Flexivity. I think we will be up there at 9:00. Let me know if you are coming

What can you do for me for my 90 hatch? I need shocks / struts all the way around to go with my coilovers. What does Autowerks have them for? nothing expensive though. Thanks!

I will be up at Flexivity for sure at 9:00. Hutch from xceed said he will be there too. Anyone else?

is all good Stylin. My garage looks good. Wish i would of done it all today but i just got worn out doing it so it will have to wait a couple weeks.

Well, i just ordered some shocks for the hatchback off of shox.com. They quoted me some really great prices but I took the cheapest. Set of (4) KYB non adjustables for $147 bucks.

only thing left that i want to do to the 2001 is a drop and body kit, well, and a lot more LOL. and besides, there are way more parts and the parts are way cheaper for the 90 but the 2001 WILL be garage kept this winter and not the hatch!

just wait till you get a hatch Stylin!

Well my buddy has air in his truck and my cousin has air in his Stang but those are air bags, I am thinking of going with air rods. I am sure the quality will be bouncy.

See you Tuesday Tomo.

My freaking wisdom tooth is a biatch this morning. Anyone ever have theirs pulled?
