You'll be surprise.... I have a Ph.D. and we don't do that much in the biotech industry... we do a lot of studies for what we are paid for. A lot of my friends do way much with a Sec. 5 or a DEC.

That's life!

So my upgraded TeinSS suspension and Neuspeed strut bar for $600.... not to bad

Was the eBay auction meeting his reserve at the final bid? If so, how did the price jump from 5ish hundred to 9 hundred??

In any event, I'll say nice pick up. Guess there'll be two sedans this summer on Tein full coilovers - though one better than the other

As for FaZe / Will .. perhaps he is rethinking about the K20a3 swap that is supposedly sitting idle for him in a garage. Or he's rethough about the car and wants to change completely again.. Last I spoke with him last week was him being iffy about keeping the car - like the economy aspect (as he commutes a bit to work and back) but wanted something else, etc etc As basically a bunch of us have talked about

Here is a pics of my Tanabe underbrace, it's bolted at the same place as the X-brace.... the front lower tie bar, is ****... it's bolt at the same place as the X-Brace but only on the front bolt... get a X-Brace or the Tanabe instead!



I realized that we don't see the bolt... but you can imagine!!!

EDIT: size changed!!!!!

Basics are not damper adjustable - they are preset. SS are fully adjustable, 32 levels of dampening altogether I believe.

Still haven't heard? Though as you say, no news is supposedly good news so here's to hoping still.

Just let me know when you'd be needing the hooks (or tools) Pat .. though where/how/when are you planning to get them installed anyways?

Long time no speak Jim. How are things? Busy like normal?

But yeah, that is a great looking, tempting to pick up, brace.. though I can probably foresee lots of exhaust rattle on it, if not scraping issues..

Yeah that's my only JDM-**** directly from Japan. I am not sure about the red, I will rather have the darker one, but I may paint it black one day you can see a red thing under the car from a certain angle... it kill my "sleeper" look!

It clear the exhaust enought (at least my OEM one!), for scraping I guess if you are really low, the lowest part of the brace it's approx. 1 inch lower than the rest of the car.

But I saw a big difference in the handling and rigidity of the car. The car is more solid when you hit a crater on the road!
