    Awesome, thanks Nick and thanks Detroit Tuned. I actually ordered a small white Detroit Tuned decal, now i'll have two! One for each side.

    As for the insulator, I could always use a cold...:beer

    Thanks everone:Thumbsup:

    If you are doing the struts and have the car apart, i strongly recommend the swift lowering springs you can get from me at
    Greene Performance
    they are focused on making the car handle well but not providing a non functional ride height drop.

    If I had more money I would. Lowering the car is probably the next suspension upgrade.
    But will be working these struts and bushings off for a while. :mad2:

    Thanks for the idea ColinGreene:Thumbsup:

    yes in fact you can and people frequently do.
    I really like the 6 speed cooper conversion.
