    Finally had a minute to mess with the car and install some long awaited parts. Super happy with the carbonetics front lip and rear diffuser. After seeing these parts I think I'm going to add the carbon side skirts next. Love the way these look on the car. Been trying to sort a couple issues with...

    Got the car out again today and just cleaned it up. Took it for another ride and everything is functioning great still. Still working to get some air out of the power steering and need to finish putting the interior back together but it's been either miserably hot or pour rain here lately so...

    The brembos are officially on, bled and road tested. What a difference these brakes make. These things grab really hard, couldn’t be happier with how it all turned out. Bleeding the brakes was a marathon but after borrowing a buddies snap on vacuum bleeder it made my life much easier. My car has...

    More progress today. Everything is mocked up / bolted up / fit tested. Proper clearance all around, no issues. Ready for bleeding. Ignore that rotor being on the wrong side, I fixed that. Really impressed with just how good these look, they fill the wheel space incredibly well and these really...

    Got the rears all bolted up today. Pretty simple, and they look great. New wheel bearings should be here tomorrow so I can bleed the fronts and get them all back together. Can’t wait to see the finished result!

    Been dormant for a few due to work and other car projects. But finally got started on the brembo swap today. Can’t tell you how excited I am to get these together. I’m going the jdm galant knuckle route. New bearings, hubs, knuckles, and evo 8 front and tears with the associated goodies. Hawk...

    Busy, busy, busy... New Koyo radiator went in with a single FAL slim puller. Couldn't fit 2 fans with the T3 manifold yet, so basically made my own single fan setup with the brackets I had and it came out great. Really glad to have the old banged up OEM radiator out of there. Flushed coolant and...

    Little more interior bits today. Reinforced the glove box metal frame because the plastic bits of the dash were broken. So cut these pieces off some table saw clamps because who the hell needs those. Worked out real well, no more floppy glovebox. Took the sun roof out to try and get it less...

    Little more work on the interior today. Real happy With the gray doors and black inlays. They came out great. Only tricky part was getting the 3 screws behind the defroster duct. I drilled out 2 5/8 holes to get to the top corner ones. Plugged the holes up with interior trim caps after the swap...

    Finally got to spend some good time on the car and gathering some more parts. Took a drive out to CT to pickup a complete, very nice gray, interior. I don't love the tan, so I'm going to be going with a gray and black combo instead, because I love the black dash, black wheel etc. I think it's...

    Mounted this little carbon 3rd brake light cover on the car today. I used JB weld plastic epoxy to bind it to the piece. I used a full syringe and about 6 clamps to hold it in place for over 24 hours. Wanted to give it plenty of time to set up and cure. I think it is going to hold up real well...

    Had a few minutes to myself in the garage and decided to see what these RPF's will look like. Actually love the look with the drag radials on there. With plans for more road track use though I'll be putting a new set of tires on these. Once I compile all the parts for my suspension, wheel...

    Well it was a good day today. Sold my WRX to free up some cash, and like any good DSM'er I put it straight into parts. Picked up a nice set of RPF 1's 17x8 on brandy new Hoosier slicks and some evo 8 Brembo fronts today from a local guy in the community. I love the current wheel and tire setup...

    Been laid up for a few weeks following surgery, but it was a nice day out today so got out and moving in the garage for a bit and decided to tackle a simple little project. Added the bumper shutters to the car today and I'm really pleased with how they look. Nice to block off the giant fog light...

    Motor Assembly Goodies. Love the gold powdercoating. Can't wait to repaint this engine bay to make it really pop in there though.Going to need a bigger garage....Already ordered the carbon bumper shutters and looking forward to putting a carbonetics splitter / diffuser on this someday.
