Hows the quality of the srs stuff? I've been tempted by a few things they offer 

Not too shabby actually. The two pieces that go together to brace the arms and make it an A shape need just a hair of filing so that they slide together nice. I'm sure I could probably take a BFH and get the together as it is though. I'll take pics tomorrow of how they fit up to the trailing arms.

This car has seen better days...

Its probably hard for you to see all these ti parts that are pristine on your other car haha

[HipMF]

Do a burnout.

Also, I have a moderately over-built subframe bushing puller if you're in the mood for a little mission creep. I can also provide pointers on RTAB removal if you feel your trailing arms aren't sufficiently bent.

[Jdesign]

Tiny ass-holes.

[Earl]

Two head sized and one very close to that if left any longer haha

[Jdesign]

Where is there a head sized hole?!

[Earl]

It has two of them lol. Both of them are where the large floor plug is, behind the front seats

[Earl]

I have a month to get this on the road by trying to work on it only during the week. Fingers crossed

Some motivation:

15 minutes a day is pretty much how I did my swap.  I want to see your slide this car like you did with the drift trike haha

I definitely will haha. The cool thing is after selling bits off of this car, and totaling the Del Sol, I have zero money into the chassis. That means I can total it into a wall and only be upset that I hurt the MHW's lol. I am really excited to have to learn car control without having excess power to use as a crutch.

The car is registered, insured, and roadworthy. I drove it to work today with zero issues. Pictures will come from this weekend. I made a promise to a friend that I wouldn't share any potato pictures on the internet haha

[Jdesign]

Would it be unfair for me to share some?

With the alignment it is pretty darty but it drives really nice. I need to get adjustable end links so I can connect the front swaybar too, since it seems the ones from BC are even too short to use at the height they set the coils at when shipping 

The exhaust is stupid loud (muffler delete with a cherry bomb to eliminate a little buzz) and it really resonates inside of the cabin with the sound deadening removed. Not to mention I don't have the radio code and also don't have the 5 sided tool to remove the radio and give the serial number to the dealer=( For some reason they don't have it logged under the VIN number...
