  • finally!

    For the past couple of weeks I've been saving and jumping on any deal I see and I've managed to horde all this:









    Here's what I got everything for:

    BMR torque arm: $250
    LCA/brackets: $160
    springs/shocks: $250
    PHB: $90
    driveshaft:$90
    sway bars: $100
    bushings,mounts,etc:$50
    total is a staggering $990 dollars

    The SLP fan switch, 02 sensor, and t-stat were already in my possession but I figured Id throw them in the picture as well.

    But this pretty much completes my suspension, except for A-arms and stuff but I dont feel like I really need those. I paid for most of things with the money I make from fixing computers so it wasn't that bad, Id say maybe 300 dollars max came out of my own pocket.


    Anyone else been collecting for a big install?

        I just put on everything I could at the time suspension wise, UMI lca's, UMI phb, J&M 35mm front bar, and KYB AGX shocks all around. If I knew how to weld I would have put my sfc's on too.

                  sweet stash man --- trust me, your car will be a whole different animal with all the suspension goodies :D

                  keep up the good work mang. i'm about to throw some serious cash at the BallerMaro after the holidays and some big work client cases pay up.

                  are you tackling most/all of this yourself or paying for install?

                        I'ma be doing this myself with a couple of friends so it should be fun lol.

                        Our cars are total money pits lol. The suspension is my third biggest thing already done to the car besides the exhaust and paint job. I never want to sit down and completely calculate everything.
