careercadaver Posted May 15, 2015 Author Share Posted May 15, 2015 Well, been at this thing a bit this week...haha Here are some progress pics as promised. Installed the Rrev front lip and JDM DD. got tires mounted today as well. I need bigger tires but that'll have to wait for the next set unless I find someone to trade me... http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/05/14/640a80810bd0d0bca88b63ff734d4d40.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/05/14/ceb304b3b2a0065c3eb9dbeff4508643.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/05/14/01fe9636655a26683204797874a32cd6.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/05/14/5d2d09aafa29f231ed109e75347f3e11.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/05/14/ac78986558f9ee70fde924b70d81da68.jpg Still playing with the fitment on this... http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/05/14/fe971e02f6de9e279de2bba4c420c1bd.jpg I'll work on better pics of this as well once I figure out where my V3 AP will be mounted. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/05/14/e3a49ce55a03cdb1a0e466aafc0aa22d.jpg I also have components that are going in.

careercadaver Posted May 23, 2015 Author Share Posted May 23, 2015 Got the car aligned today...night and day difference. Found a few things that need addressed...doing an inner passenger side CV boot...front diff plug is leaking so I ordered a replacement and steering rack lines as well. ...always something. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
careercadaver Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 My CV boot had torn so I pulled that and rebooted it this morning...only took me about two hours!! Not bad for not remembering how it came out last time. I think the first time it took me about four hours. :/ I'm pretty sure I could do one in about 45min now. The drain plug for the front diff is leaking...seems like a good time for some ExtraS and a new plug/gasket. Might as well do the rear diff too...Also, my rack and pinion hard lines are leaking...might grab the o-rings from the dealer in case the come apart easily...

careercadaver Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 Picked up Redline Fluid for F&R Diffs, some Gimmick Hood Dampers and a plastic under engine panel yesterday. I gotta stop spending money on this thing and get her back in the road...haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98legwag Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I am really liking those XT7 wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
careercadaver Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 I am really liking those XT7 wheels. Me too man. Been a huge fan of them ever since I saw Katie O's wagon... http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/05/29/67e8f85f5604dab2a93e2bc7dddde3dc.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/05/29/e32cab061f4c62d39d892fd5238d67a6.jpg Hoping to do a little more fitment as I go. As long as she remains functional I'll run a bit more tire and possibly space out the rear 5mm. Kinda stuck till I can swing new tires, a Whiteline rear camber kit and eccentric camber bolts up front... ...too, I'm kinda between that it starting in on suspension...I'd really like a set of Cusco sways, AVO Endlinks and rear reinforcement brackets. Just trying to finish ideas before I start others as I still have some audio I need to finish and some maintenance this weekend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98legwag Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 I did sway bars on my 3.0R with Perrin end links and AVO rear brackets. It helped a good bit. And yeah, Katie O's wagon is sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
careercadaver Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 It looks like it may be awhile...some things have changed and we are trying to get our home ready to sell... Swapped the redline for whatever garbage was in my front diff...blackest shit I've ever seen...read diff fluid didn't look too bad by comparison but definitely had a burnt color. Shifts amazingly smooth by comparison!! Ran Amsoil Severe Gear in my LGT and this definitely gives it a run for its money!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
careercadaver Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 Got the roof rack on today... http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/06/10/91ec59d1327a70c731551f826a7001be.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
careercadaver Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 Here's a few pics I've been playing with...picked up a JDM BPV that will hopefully be going on soon along with a boost leak test. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07/12/20261be1048427b35a4bfddb717078ec.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07/12/c07fe47882eff7526f10e3ae6f7bc355.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07/12/b01d49018e3405c580912b17250817d4.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07/12/33462815d013e4ddcbdc3d171381e755.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07/12/70b920e361237b39b63d513d8210d65e.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07/12/4adb2709404fb6040df3d5de2ab7e60c.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
careercadaver Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 Been awhile since I updated... Threw on the JDM BPV and it made a noticeable difference in turbo response! Planning for the next mod but it looks like it may be spring before I do too much more...id like to play with more aesthetics but I'm pushing this set-up as hard as if like to without quite an overhaul...

careercadaver Posted November 15, 2015 Author Share Posted November 15, 2015 Well, I've decided to sell the car in favor of an STi hatch. Need the room after the kid mod and career change...I'm back in Real Estate and it would be very nice to be able to carry signs and the baby in the car at the same time. :/ In any case JMP and I took some pictures last weekend before I began pulling parts for winter. Here's a few...I have about 70 more if interest is shown. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11/15/68966d2f5983cd5a9efd08b172c9f09a.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11/15/d153b99b5211e064d726f29595e4be2b.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11/15/f6fdb224024c1808b194497652407a53.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11/15/7dc119d74bad9bf4b07458fe4c422c15.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11/15/6f3860d42c776c3b9e4a522bf186498c.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/11/15/27c9f8bca6d7760b805de92cd65fe434.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
