Well, its been a while! Glad to see the community is still healthy with a lot of CSM enthusiast and a lot of ongoing projects! This section is a very good Idea! Got me motivated to work on the car again! Well here is mine.
My car is still running strong. 11.32 last time to the track with serious traction issue and shifting issues. A few things were bugging me so I decided to take the long run and fix here the way she diserve.

This will be a long term evolution, time being an issue right now with the kid newly arrived ;)

So this is the list of what is to come:
- Koni yellow front shock inserts
- 2G AWD transmission with welded center diff with my quaife installed in it
- Fidanza AWD flywheel
- Expo Knuckes
- DSM axles
- 2G Big brakes
- 15X8 inch wheels and beefy tires
- 2inches Spacers to jack rear end (My Tein Flex coil over are a bit short use to be for an evo 3)
- DSMlink V3
- Vaccum hoses clean up
- Power distribution clean-up
- Maybe a Roll cage
- Maybe a paint Job
An probably more as we go...

So here is the first part:
Kony yellow inserts in KYB struts with GC coil overs.

Thank you,

For years I've been called a freak for waxing the engine bay of my car! Now that there is a purpose for such cleanliness, I feel a bit more normal :oops:

I was hoping too, but we have another activity planned on the exact same weekend. I miss the shoot out soo much! It will be the 3rd year in a row that I miss.... I guess the year after could serve as a family trip.

I have to admit that we are very Lucky! We have been given an intelligent and healthy kid. And he is so quiet and respectful, can wait for the teen ages... :rock:
