Alright Kris thanks for the help!
I'll ask them for the quote / a printed copy of the parts / cost an then I will let you know!

Also how much would you charge for front struts changed? I already have the struts, just need to pick up the bushing / boot . Strut picture is up in the OP.

Save your pennies and atleast buy a GST!

As sad it sounds, I am using my financial aid to pay for my car parts. :(

I quit my jobs to continue my education. I was working full time in a restaurant as a line cook / prep while going to school full time. I was sleeping 6 hours or so a day. I was exhausted. At times I got home I feel straight asleep and then wake up and go to work. Didn't have much time for homework. So I ended up quitting before it affected my grades. :notgood:

I will be working on getting a GS-T next year! That will be another project!!! :hellyeah: :thumb:


Right now, I am trying to focus on making my RS my daily driver without having to worry it is going to break down on me or a wheel is gonna come off while I am driving in the freeway or on my way to class etc ROFL

Also while saving cash for me!!! :)

That is why I am on a budget, trying to make everything work if that makes sense? :confused:
 
here we go again with the haters LOL

Arnie that is a sick looking clutch setup, wish i had that kind of money to set up my 95 n/t talon. let me know if you have a need for any parts though, from my 96 part out car i just got. here is the link parting out 96 eagle talon, runs good

hahaha he always hates! LOL

Thank you! Thank you! :applause: appreciate the support!

Actually there is a few things I need, how are the seat belts on that car? Do they retract and everything? I need to replace my driver side seat belt cause it drags to a certain length then it tightens. I may need to take it apart and see if it is twisted, but might as well change it if it does that LOL...

DSM Discount on multiple parts? :D ROFL :confused: :hellyeah: :thumb: :dsm:

I feel you on the cash flow, I bought my front struts in April and never finished putting them on due to shortage on funds, might put them on next week finally.

Changed my lift gates!
Got my ball joints done at Mitsubishi, thank you recall FREE!!!! not a cent spent!

Saturday I changed the Clutch with a bro.

Sunday I changed the front struts an changed the rims to stock.

Monday I got my car aligned and I had replaced 3/4 tire rods. Since the alignment place said they went bad and they wouldn't give me a warranty. That the alignment would not last due to bad tire rods. So I changed the rods and had a 4 wheel alignment.
I also got my Viper Alarm system! Kill switch as well!
I also got my Drivers license Monday September 24th.

Was a good day for me and my family!

Sounds good. Baby steps bro. That's my motto :thumb:. Having the ability to get to & from is always a plus. As far as I'm conserned Mine isn't even running:notgood:. I'm a do it piece by piece. I just purchased an exhaust manifold last week. I be getting a cylinder head at the end of this week. Next week I plan on getting a 2g intake manifold & throttle body. hopefully by the end of the month, if the price is right, I'll upgrade my turbo. So far so good. As far as haterz go. They hated on Jesus so we ain't exempt:nono:. I love my fans. They just make me go harder in the paint LOL:hellyeah:...
