(even though they were never installed

-Brake pads

-SS lines

-Brake Fluid

I should have a whole new car (handling) by next weekend.

Stoked!!!

AWESOME.

Did you go with the Tein S-techs and WRX struts like we talked about?

Actually.....he inspired them to make another prototype called the G-types. Lower spring rates AND a lower drop!!

Should be sic man!!!! Cant wait to hear the review!!!

I know...

Sorry Jeff. I honestly thought it was LAST weekend. I had plans to move a few things to my new house today. I've had those plans for at least a month

. I really wanted to go too.

I hate moving.

A shop is not doing the install. No way.

Jeff/Steve: Down for a brake bleed/SS lines install tomorrow morning? I'll call you.

Tell us what springs and struts you bought or ban!

Naturally. The question comes to mind though, why not just cut your stock springs? That way you don't sacrifice ride quality since you're using stock spring rates.

I'm completely new to swapping brake fluid.

What do I need to get to prepare (besides pads, lines, and fluid

?

flatthump · 09-15-2007, 03:57 PM
