Looks good turbobird! Great job on applying the Plasti-Dip, it looks smooth. In fact the Plasti-Dip is the reason I'm commenting.I Plastidipped my 2g several months back, white in fact! I just thought I'd give my small word of advice and tell you of my current experience in hopes that many...
Since I couldn't find a more specific forum to post this in I suppose I'll throw it up here.I've managed to come across a decent '98 (split thrust bearing motor) GST, and it has its fair share of problems. Basically I'm going to list everything I know about the car. I'd like some opinions on...
Figured its about time to post in your thread. You've put a lot of work into this car and I commend that. There aren't many people here that would put as much effort as we have into a GS. Looks like you've done a great job with everything. I've considered coilovers myself but decided I'd get...
Hey thanks man, the streets around here have done that to some people I know.Well all in all it cost me around 275 but that was because I purchased a sprayer made for plasti dip as well. By the way if you do decide to dip your car let me know, because I don't need the sprayer anymore and I'd...
Honestly I don't remember. It was all one write up on how to correct the rear camber with lowering springs. I'll search for it and see if I can find it.
Actually no, the fronts ended up sitting on factory camber. The rears were a little different. I'm pretty sure there's a thread on here on how to do this, but you have to buy longer bolts and some washers to use as spacers for the upper control arms. Basically what this does is push the top of...
There are definitely some tight areas but for the most part it shouldn't be too bad. A microfiber cloth really helps to take off the difficult parts. I plan on removing the easy stuff like mirrors and tail lights just to make it easy on myself. Currently it's actually pretty easy to peel off...
Update!I can't say it's a fresh paint job, mostly because it's not paint. I'll elaborate later. First, since we're on the topic of paint, here's a couple pictures of what the factory paint still looks like. Keep in mind this is after a GOOD wax job.Also, don't mind the dent.I...
Sorry for the late response, I'm planning on updating this very soon. There's been a lot done since my last change.To answer the question, it's doing OK. When I wax it the paint really does look beautiful. It's almost as if all the dings and scratches from my college town aren't there. The...
Next upgrade was my sound system. I don't have pictures of any of the processes or installation steps I took. But I grabbed a nice Sony Headunit and a set of Infinity Kappa 6.5" speakers all around. Then installed my JL sub that I've had for a few years. I like crisp sound over ear piercing...
After the last upgrades I just kept looking around for the little things to start bringing the car together. I found some typical clear side marker to replace the ugly orange ones. For such a small thing they really made the car look better.After installation and a good wax.Then I...
Interior upgrades were next. So I yanked out the old messed up headliner and pulled off the old fabric. I didn't realize how annoying it was going to be to get the foam padding off of the board until I started. Here's after 20 minutes of scraping...After scraping everything off I went to...
Not that it matters a whole lot but what makes you think that's a GS? Looks a hell of a lot like an RS to me. Still looks like you got a steal and a good looking car. Glad to see someone else boosting the 420a.
These wheels were a great deal, I jacked up an Evo and ran off with them. The tires ran me about $650 minus a $100 rebate card.I got the wheels in a trade for my stockers plus cash.
