Well I just finished installing the ACT HD clutch and whiteline steering rack bushings. After 95,000 miles alot of the bolts on the car were a pain. It took me and a friend almost 8 hours start to finish for everything. Best part was the flywheel resurface was FREE!!! Even though my stock clutch was slipping it didnt look that bad. For some reason there were only hot spots on the inner 1/3 of the clutch and flywheel, almost like it wasnt clamping correctly. My buddy thinks the pressure plate was going. Now the reviews:

Whitleline steering rack bushings: Everything everyone said about these being the best upgrade for the 04s was corrects. The steering feels incredible. Im mad I waited this long.

ACT HD clutch - I have only put 40 miles on this clutch and I love it. It grabs nice and tight and is surprisingly easy to drive. Whoever said you need more leg strength to push this clutch down needs to hit the gym. This thing is buttery smooth and feels almost like stock.

I will be installing my BC racing coilovers soon and will post an update.
