Also did ARP studs and a 10mm slip on in the rear

This is my pride of the build. Customer built, valved and spring rates. Built for me after talking to the owner aka Odi about goals for the car, weight of car, what tires I plan on running and what sizing. Ended up being 14k front and 14k rear (effective since the car is not supposed to have true rear coilovers) Was originally going for KW V3 but the customer service and knowledge from a local big name company was perfect !

Installed a tow hitch and even wired it for a small trailer as the intentions were to tow mine and my friends tools, supplies and both our sets of track wheels and tires to the track

Looks like it was in the wrong hands and you saved it... nice transformation!

 

He was a 21 year old lol

I fixed everything I didn't like about it

 

beautiful.

god bless the money pit known as the HR

 

hey hey i'm liking the build! I've had my coilovers rebuilt by FEAL and feels so much smoother. Awaiting that master cylinder brace review!!!!

 

what platform are you going to?

 

Nice car! Really liking your brake and suspension setup.

 

Baby hauler lol if you read my for sale add she took my apartment, everything in it. Took off her ring and threw me to the wolves. Without ever giving me a chance to fix whatever she was not happy about

I bought this car after asking her cause with the Bulls I already had I knew I could not afford it and live without her help. She left, my daily is acting up. Time to sell my dream car and get a four door normal car. Looking into a Honda Fit actually! I wanted one years back and I guess it's that time to be a boring person again. But she is not coming back and time to be the man I always have and put my family first

 

Idk how I don't have pictures but the rear has eccentric lockouts and rear spring buckets delete so it runs actual toe arms not toe bolts

 

well if she is going to be that way, you are better off without her. sorry you are going through this sir. let me know if you need anything

 

Yeah shut sucks. My whole life torn from me now I look like a ****ing dweb back at home with my parents as a failure but whatever this is a car Forum

Let's get this car sold! I need to get a four door reliable car. The daily is being a punk and doesn't run the best anymore

 

+1, Mal.

Righteous build up and sorry to hear about the pending sale.

But you know the old cliche.... "From adversity, the phoenix shall rise."

I am an example of the old phoenix who refused to go down. Hang tough and you know who and where your friends are.

 

I've never been the guy with tons of friends. She was my everything and now she's out and happy with her friends everyday. I'm here miserable. She is lost

But I've been with her for almost 6 years. I knew what I wanted. Meh two months later and it still hurts the same. Girls can't live with them can't live without. She chose friends, fun and parties over her family and wanting her so bad I still can't even hate her lol it pisses me off


Anyway is my for sale add approved now Mic?

 

i can say i know what you are going through, dont let it get you down. make yourself happy whatever that entails

 

Just approved it but you need to add the VIN to the posting, thanks.

 

I'll get the vin when I get home hopefully it's not too hard by then

And thanks Trav. It's all out of my hands. Time to stop killing myself for something that I had nothing to do with
