Well the day has finally come to where I obtain my dream wheels for this car! I love the fitment this is perfect!! I couldn't be happier with these.

I wanna give a BIG thank you to Mike Collins and Tim Oaster up at FIST racing for installing the Coilovers and always working on my cars, and to Charles Back for giving me a good deal on the BC racing Coilovers, and to my boy Alex Ruiz for hooking me up with the Bridgestone Potenza RE760's and to David and Minh from Garage Nowin for sourcing out these amazing wheels for me.

Thank you! Here let me copy and paste what I said in another thread when someone asked me that yesterday real quick haha
 
It's a slow progression because of me wanting to fix the GTR and might be getting into the 2JZ life soon as well. But in time all the parts will all go in the VR4 at once. I still wanna get a curt brown built head to top off that setup, and might ditch the no name brand ram horn manifold and get a top mount quality piece like I always wanted. I'm in no hurry also because I know once the aluminum Rod motor goes in I really gotta limit my long distance driving apparently LOL.
 
Well, lastnight we tried to setup the suspension, got it a lot better but ran into a few problems. I had too much positive camber in the rear, so we made it negative a bit, and at the time on the rack it looked the same as the front but after driving around noticed its a bit more inwards then the front now. So we'll have to add a bit more positive camber again Lol

And We got the rear toe dialed in though, and the front camber is good, but when we tried doing the Toe to adjust the tie rods one of them maxed out and couldn't get one side into spec so now I have to figure out what's going on there. I remember a while back I had to replace one of the outer tie rods myself using a stupid Oreillys one, and that's the one that's running out of adjustment. So I'm thinking I should either get an oem outer tie Rod or i can get an Oreillys inner tie Rod to match with the outer one that's already on there and hope it doesn't max out again.

Well, Tanya didn't win anything but did get the most attention while up there, and Samara took home a "Best Mitsubishi" trophy!

Finally got around to getting some good pics of the front and rear install of the EVO 9 SE Recaro's in the VR4. BIG Thanks to Mike and Tim from FIST racing for the perfect install! And Thanks to Brian Huy Nguyen for taking the pics.

Little meme I made for myself because these new EVO 9 SE seats are very forgiving in the hot weather, unlike the stock leather VR4 seats which can get kinda hot. These leather/suede combo really make it not as bad. And this is exactly how I am when it's hot while driving the VR4 haha

Got this RCI fuel rail I've been trying to get for the longest time. BIG thanks to Jax Goad for finally selling it to me.

Got a replacement AFCO Racing radiator for the VR4, thanks to Steve aka (MistaVR4) over on GalantVR4.org. the one currently in the car has a pin hole leak that isn't causing any harm or overheating yet because it barely leaks but I still wanted to changed it for peace of mind.
