Hopefully I can pick up enough overtime. Anyone have any work they need done??

Nicole is also a professional party/event planner if you know anyone looking for someone

Im at work right now. Just talked to frank and he wont be doing the wheels and studs till tonight. they did go over my tune though and smooth out a couple things I didnt like in it and added a little bit more fuel so it wouldnt lean out under constant throttle in a single gear like autox driving.


If I didnt have to be up at 5am for work tomorrow I would go up and takes lots of pictures and test fit things but I dotn think I am going up there at ~10 i would be a mess tomorrow


I got 10$ BS wheel spacers at advance auto that are 5/16" (~8mm) that he will use only if the fronts dont fit to the inside. once everything is mounted up and I double check my calculations I will order Z1's cnc machined slip on spacers

03, can I ask you some wheel spacer and stud questions? I need to replace my studs and want to get some longer ones. I know ARP is what everyone suggests. Any recommendations? Also any brands you suggest for spacers? Thanks man

I run ARP on my car as well.....


They are the only ones I would buy. Just my .02.

Edit...I run Z1 spacers. They are just CNC'd billet aluminum.

z1 motorsports cnc'd spacers

ARP heavy duty extended lugs
http://z1auto.com/prodmore.asp?model...ls&prodid=4356
