This is why you can't have nice things.

It's a ~$700 difference between them so that's why it's a choice but I guess I could put that towards the rear lol

Larry is taking good care of the car. Unfortunately, I managed to get a set of recalled Koni yellows on the car. thats what i get for buying them last year. at least I didn't put them on the car before the swap...

The_Bishop 10-15-2022 05:42 PM

Hey, what's the info on the recall Koni yellows? I've had a set on my car for *years*, hopefully it's a relatively recent thing.

Was like 2nd half of 2021. If yours was bad you woulda known apparently spring perch manufacturer changed and they made it a tad too big...

Ah, got you. Thanks!

Much better stance. It's almost done! Hurdle after hurdle of course with the small things that come up lol

Looks good. Forgot to tell you I saw it with motor out when I stopped by Larrys shop. Has to walk away so I don't have to take out a second mortgage and go all out on my car

Used my buddy up north. FAP Auto. Does absolutely amazing work. Expensive to mount the tires but he's fair on the coating pricing. I used Alloy Wheel Repair to do the g5 wheels and I was not happy with their work

Got the car back. Tune still needs dialing in but had to get it home before Governor Brine keeps the roads coated all winter long.

I have fresh rebuilt calipers, hawk HPS pads and fresh rotors waiting to go on. Hopefully get the tune dialed in when Larry has his dyno

Going to Larry Thursday for diff fluid change and check over after driving it around a bit. I noticed power steering fluid has left the chat. Seems to be leaking from the rack but will check on the lift. Also parking brake cables are not happy, pass side holder broke and drivers side rubbing against panhard. Cars are fun but at least it looks good!
