Replaced eBay bracket with COZ. Nothing wrong with the old one.

COZ next to eBay. These are opposite since I took off the driver side and installed it. I'll try to remember to get a picture of the passenger side.

Had Jas at JDS do a COBB tune on my car, picked up around 30hp. Also had him install a GT Spec rear tie bar, Hotchkis sway bars and NRG quick release. Car is handling alot better and running smoother too.

Looks way better without them when you have fat rears and a bumper tuck! They're 295s, and no not boosted...for now

Added 15 & 25mm spacers. Now my stocker wheels are flush.

Next up: tires for aftermarket summer wheels since the current ones are bald to the belts from autocrossing (and wannabe drifting - LOL).

Installed Hotchkis swaybars (a gift from a friend!), prepaired the car for the upcoming Time Attack competition.

Trying to decide if I should install solid engine mounts...

Nice! I really hope you lubed them up! Supposedly, if you don't they get a mad creak after a while. You're supposed to add a lot of lube to the bushing section with the grease fittings or by packing the bushing section with grease. Just make sure you don't put it inside the ball-joint though. There's a discussion about it on the Suspension section. Good luck with those! I am thinking about getting either those or SPC front and rear arms. Let me know how you like them.
