Since everyone else is updated us w/ shots I figured meh I'll do the same.
this is how it sits.
this is partially why.
I've had the brakes since august and I finally got all the parts (or so I thought) and my suspension recently blew so I said screw it.. UPGRADE!!! About 4 weeks ago (closer to five now actually) My roomate and I decided to drive to the SPR garage and throw the s**t on. I got out of class around 3 and got home car was already packed and we go to work. The MC and BB went in no problem, we had some issues w/ the rear suspension but got both done no problem. It was about 8 and cold as f**k so I decided to stop for the night. Bled the brakes test drove it and called it a day.
A few days later we try and do the front's and can't break the nut that holds the knuckle to the axle free. We give up because its cold as f**k. Plus I'm busy as f**k w/ work, school, and other responsibilities keeping me busy over 55 hours a week. And well its now 4 weeks later and my roomate helps me out big time and finishes the fronts. He finally gets it done and bled. The brakes lock up when my buddy is test driving it for me (cuz I've been at class work the from 8am-10pm).
We start checking everything that it could be MC is brand new BB is in great shape lines aren't kinked hoses are fine calipers are fine. After trouble shooting fails I just gave up (this was monday) My roomates bsing with a friend who did a teg upgrade on his white hatch (see 2 cars I shot in photo forum). And it turns out I was sent the wrong BB its an abs model! FCUK I shoulda checked so now I'm waiting for a new BB and time so I can finally drive it.
How it sits:
Function/Form Coilovers 8k rear 11k front 24 way adjustable dampening
Function/Form rear LCAs
A-spec racing rear subframe reinforcement
Si sway bar
ST bushings
Teg brakes front and rear
15x6.5 slips w/ (f) kumha ecsta supra 712's 205/50 and (rear) ecsta ASX 205/50
the car is basically done for summer expect I'm gonna throw my camber kit on when I can get it into the schools shop for an aligment and tweak it for autoX plus depending on funds this summer I'ed like to pick up a seperate set of wheels (16x7) for autoX onl, so I can just run some all seasons on the slips.
