Yes for both.

Valve cover needs to be replaced to fix that but I don't want to ask how much that would cost to replace

Not sure dude. My buddy Jason swapped from coilovers to Tein Flexes and said the ride is night and day.

Going to powdercoat my wheels and possibly coilovers. I want to get some suspension work done before ZDayZ.

How much did he spend on the coilovers? I can get them all day, and unless you spend a few bucks, it will be a little rough.

I'm still not sure on which coilovers I want to get... I'm thinking HKS.

Probably bronze or maybe something like the top secret gold. Not sure yet though.

Tony, what makes the 19x10's rears only? Does the company make you put them on the rears only? I see too many Z guys doing this stupid ****, kinda pisses me off. Anyway, if you're set on the wheels I'de run the 19x10 all around.

Greg, last time I looked TEIN Flex were coilovers?

Coilovers will always be rougher than any spring setup. Even the high end ones.

Dustin, if you pass on the 240, let me know and see if you can find out why it's not running, Thanks



ok done

Unless you get the UTEC from a place that tunes it as a bundle, a used one is your best bet. No real point in buying the UTEC from a vender and you have to pay more for the tune...

Osiris is only sold by UpRev (maybe AAM) or used so... you don't really have much options.
