i really need a day off with some nice weather so I can get all my parts on the car...

Any updates?

I've got some d-specs coming in the mail...

Nice, I am curious to see how my KYB/Tein combo does compared to my old setup. I want coil overs bad but I have some things to pay first.

I ordered a BHR ignition a week ago, doubt it will be here in time to put on. Hoping to get on some Hotchkis sways too, and maybe a new deck and a sub... so little time to get anything done when you only have the car for... a little over 2 weeks before the meet. I have a lot of stuff planned for when I get back though.

Well hopefully you can get the kit before then, that would be cool.

My bushings will have to wait until we get back. Didn't realize how big of a job that was going to be. I will be installing another set of STechs as my rear driver side is sagging 3/4". Still waiting to see of Tein will warranty them.

Tein is pretty good about warranty. When I was having my sagging issues I sent mine back to them and they tested out just fine. They actually sent me a statement stating so as well. I had already installed a new set of Teins and KYB shocks which fixed my sagging issues. I would be willing ot bet your issue uis a shock issue not the Teins.

My shocks appeared to be fine when we removed them but obviously they were not because installing the KYB shocks fixed the issue.

I'm good if that is the case as well. D-specs have a lifetime warranty, but they seem to be fine. No play in them at all. I ended up buying springs. They will be here wed. If that doesn't fix it. I'll send the d-specs off. I'm hoping its the springs, because I definitely can't make the trip with my camper the way it is.

Add: I found my oem struts, so if the d-specs are bad, I'll just put those in for the run. We shall see.

I got my new radio installed, my axelflow short shifter from my old 8 is also in, and once the weather is a little nicer will put the Racing beat oil cooler cover things on. That will probably be it for me other then what was done in the past.

Im going to put my oem rear struts in tomorrow to see if that fixes te sag before my springs get here on tues. Just to be sure it isn't the struts.

well I am taking my car to the dealership tuesday morning. right now I am hoping that I have my car back for next weekend. keep your fingers crossed...

Got the oil cooler covers on, and Jimmy broke one of my side vents but we ghetto rigged it on the Oklahoma way! Can't wait for Thursday to come so we can head to Texas.

Well it was my strut sagging. So we shall see how well tokico stands behind their warranty. And again I'm sorry James, you can have my vent when my new ones come in.

Eh, as long as it stays on I would rather not go through the trouble of taking that thing off again. Going to be using the stock shocks then? For the trip that is. I wonder where they dragged my car off to, you could of taken the old ones off of it O.o

Yeah stock rears for the trip. I called tokico and left a message, the warranty guy was out of office. Even if they warranty them, I might just buy coilovers and be done.

Jim you are the second person I have known personally to have this issue.

Thats crazy. Ray from tokico cld me back. He helped me track down the people I bought my struts from. I'm shipping it off for replacement as soon as I get back. I already have all the rga #'s and everything. I decided to go ahead and install the new stechs that I bought and Highspeed is going to buy my old ones, since that wasn't the problem.

See you guys tomorrow

That's what I did, I bought new shocks and installed new S techs and installed my old S tech's on sillwhitegirls' car. the only thing that pisses me off if that she is now lower than me :lol:
