oh how i dislike you right now

Mine are blown

 

[Matt V]

Mine are blown to HELL. Factory 1990 shocks, VERY VERY blown.

Adding the $50 FM Springs to these VERY soon. Pics to come next week hopefully if I can get them put in.

same here on the factory 90's shocks. lol

 

[Matt V]

I can feel every little bump in the road but it's still a super soft ride. Weird combo LOL.

 

[Matt V]

Installed NGK wires today.

Feels a TON better than the Autozone crap wires I had in there.

Jeg says he got em for $30 at his autozone

 

[Matt V]

I didn't know Autozone carried NGK's. At least mine doesn't.

 

[Matt V]

Just an update. I ordered some 46mm Fat Cat bump stops today, as well as some NB tophats. If everything goes as planned I'll be installing them next week and be about an inch lower.

 

[Matt V]

Don't hate, but I picked up a style bar today for a deal I couldn't refuse.

Taking the little brother for a ride.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

I'd refuse a bag of s*** if someone offered it to me for free, good deal or not. hahaha

Do u plan to get a roll bar ever?

 

[THE Phen]

That's one way to phrase it I guess... LOL.

 

[Matt V]

I've been contemplating a roll bar but given that this is my daily driver, I don't think it's worth the hassle. I'm extremely happy with the style bar, especially the improved handling (YES, it actually does help).

 

[xDJ DUBx]

What hassle? Getting in and out the car or installing?

Idk if you've seen it, but many call them things guillotines due to the possible loss of your head by one in a crash. How much truth there is to this I'm not sure but to each is their own.

 

[Matt V]

Actually, both of those things HAHA.

And I've heard of it, but that's really only if you FLIP the car. I won't be competing much in this car so that's not a concern. It HAS been proven though that the style bars add strength to the left and right side, in the event of a side impact.

LOL

Alright matt.
