i passed emissions.....finally. Was at a loss since the engine, ignition components, spark components, and full exhaust only have 2k miles on them. Couldn't believe it kept failing.

Ordered 40mm extended studs, full coil-overs, and full bushing kit. Packed everything up including the car for shipment and waved good-bye, see you in about three months. Slowly looking for a lateral bar!! :x

I made a big ass shift knob. It's an 8" long pry bar handle with a eBay shifter extension pressed in inside, so it's threaded inside. I've got about 20 bucks in it.

Nope. Made the mistake of tapping the strut threaded to a different thread and using half regular bolts and grade 8 bolts. I'm gonna switch with RCA, I'm done w/ these NCRCA's
