Your right, we strapping down the rear today. springs that "might help" is not what i am looking for. Unless you know for sure they will help. I am using Eibach Pro springs right now.

The motor mounts are good so far it has out lasted everyone's concern about them. I daily the car and i have beat on it to make sure it is not going to snap the dif or a mount or anything. We continue to inspect the whole was swap and later on as i make more power it could be something we need to be concern with and pay more attention but as of now no issues with the mounts at all.

UPDATE:

and we continue.... top feed fuel rail and RC550cc injectors installed..

Diamond Racing Pro Wheel fever lol

4 of them are 16 X 10, 0 offset
2 of them are 16 X 10, -15 offset
2 of them are 16 X 8, -15 offset

I have to repaint all of them. Playing with different tire sizes to see what fit and looks better. Will do fender flares to drop the car some.








On the car













Coilovers and body work coming soon! Might have the wheels powder coated either completle black or black inside with red lip or simply flat black.
