FINALLY got around to a build thread... 56K torture.

Looks good there's a lot of work behind all that. I like the front air dam bumper or whatever it's called. Can you put driving lights in that? That would be good, our cars need some help in the lighting department. Sweet ride man.

[QUOTE=rotaryboy23;7955018]If you hadn't added IMO, I probably would have found out who you were and killed you... Now I can't even get mad at you. Ouch though. You just took 6 months of work and slapped me in the face with it...
Lol well, It's not my cup of tea. I'm just not into many body kits with the 7. Sorry, you have done some great work though and as long as your happy then thats greeat.
...btw love the interior.

It's been a while, but here's a few updates on what I'm doing with my winter...
te FC subframe swap is slowly getting closer. Whole thing is almost assembled.
Most of it is copied from nofords setup.
So far:
All the bushings are redone,
tie rod end boots replaced,
manual rack with new dust boots,
poly control arm bushings were (backordered),
everything blasted and painted,
all the bolts and washers blasted or stripped and painted,
KYB AGX shocks, spring mounts ground off,
2.5" x 8" 175lb springs w/coilover sleeves
Ebay camber plates (mookeh or some ****)
Rebuilt/powder coated TII Calipers (front only) and TII rotors (not drilled or slotted...yet)
4x110 - 5x114.3 adapters in the rear
S5 NA motor dynoed @ 147 WHP
Still have to solve a few problems:
drill out the strut tops so the top nut has threads to grab,
find m12x1.25 castle nuts for the tie rod ends, since they're hens teeth...
Decide on wheels.
Right now it's between the Voxx MG3's

or MSR Style 080's

Unless someone has other suggestions that would actually fit... And I still need to sell the Kosei's...
