Is that what you mean ? or cruise up to C&C and then cruise to Jason's also ?
In any case, I would probably just meet up with you at C&C and then head down to Jason's.
I was suggesting that we all meet at C&C and head to J's, so yeah, your first ideal

Who were the people interested in driving down to UpRev for a tune this summer, and is that still a possibility? I was just reminded of that today with talk of tunes on the FX forums.
possibility = yes...
when = dont know (too much shiet going on)

Thanks Jake for the help with brake rotors and pads install! Now I have the confidence and know what to do myself.
Total ***** though for the stripped and over tq bolts. I think I am going to get some damaged bolt remover, Harbor Freights corded impact, and have a go at it later today.

My response...

"Wait you have to test the pipes on your car!?!?!"

Thanks for the info, much appreciated! I actually picked up the SPL right before I made the post :/ so unfortunately I wouldn't be able to buy squeakys. I think it will be alright because I'm just interested in keeping the toe in spec right now and not adjusting it all too often. Since I have the true coilover setup I thought it might be better to get the SPL because of the spherical bearings instead of the rubber bushings on the SPC/Eibach kit. A true coilover in the rear puts more stress on the suspension components, at least from some of the research I have done on here?
also, honestly, i would pick the spc rear CAMBER arm over spl any day...you should buy squeakys.....
Try adjusting those when mounted in the lug of the rear subframe, its hard to get big wrenches in there.
The spc has a turn buckle mid way.....so there is nothing in the way when adjusting.
And as for toe arms:
I would rather have "Battle Version" since its a complete hex to turn versus the SPL end thats also shoved up in the subframe lug.
its harder to get wrenches up there....spl's ends are adjustable on the rod end side......thing is its stuffed inbetween the aluminum lug of the subframe...........they look nice though..

"yeah, but there's one pipe that takes a female to test"
"yeah I'm pretty good about keeping my pipes regular"
