        I need to update pictures BAD. That ugly subframe and those shiny items are now one (they were stainless patch panels) and that cradle has since been ground, hand sanded, coated with rust bullet, and painted with matte black rustoleum. As I get time I'll continue to elaborate. I more or less threw that together last night to get things started.

                    Huge negative! Haha, nah I've been storing the car for the winters ever since I bought it. Usually ends up being November-May.

                        Fiddled with the text alot. This is in there now:

                        " Took her out as soon as I got her on the ground. How does she feel? Awesome! Now I can really feel the new suspension. Car feels absolutely solid with the upgraded bushings. A little harsh over bumps but totally worth the handling benifits (just something I need to get used to). The new motor mounts give the car much much better response and keeps the nose planted solid when I mash the throttle. Having really pushed the car much; still shaking here down. Did some spirited driving on the coastal route in Kennebunk though. Car is very nimble and the old sloppy body roll is non-existant. Can't imagine how the coilovers are going to improve on this! Haven't pushed the new brakes either, I can tell they have bite though! There is some mild slop somewhere; hope its just from the out of round Ziex 512's and poor alignment."

                          Looks good bro! But do me a favor for your own sake. GET SOME JACK STANDS!!! With all the money you spent you could have went to autozone and grabbed a pair of $15 jack stands and be much safer then a bunch of bricks.

                            Haha, those aren't bricks! God no. My Dad has had those for years. They are studded together portions of 2x4! They are solid, trust me!
