    New goodies all ready for install.

    New Powerflex Lower Control Arm Bushings, not sure iof the bushing arriers are new or just nicely cleaned up ones that were already on the car. We also have a new set of Koni Yellows thanks to the Mid-Ohio Motoring folks, hence the logo on the Rebuilt Tee shirt. New spring perches to work with the Vorschlag Camber Plates already on the car, just needed to change the perch from the coil over spring to the new to me but used beta version of the TSW springs. Also in there are new brake rotors from Way for the BDM BBK.

    Oh yeah, there is a set of Craven Speed Strut Tower Defenders (STD) going on as well.

    I always love the TSW rotors for the BDM kit. Those suckers are thick!

    That was the exact same trajectory I had with the Alta PSRS (which stands for PieceSoeRShiite in my world). I never took pictures of the mess since I was too embarrassed of the outcome. I am loving the Powerflex now.

    According to FedEx tracking the resonators were delivered today. Maybe Chad will text me pictures of them.
