Yeah. I hate them too. You're better off with the TRD 'quick' shifter. ACT clutch disc also has a quick clutch engagement. Engages smoothly as well.

Probably a weird question, but do they make athe ride alot smoother compared to the stock suspension? and do you know what brand those are?

I hate short shifters. It doesn't feel smooth, it feels clunky and awkward like it's not on right. The stock one is shorter than any car I've ever driven that was stick, so it's fine for me. I'd agree with that 100%




Piece of advice, eBay coilovers are a terrible decision. They rattle, die fast, and don't hold their level well. If you want smooth, get a real strut/shock setup like mine or spend the big bucks for the real coilovers. Not the kind that rattle and go over your existing struts.

well it whas fun wile it lasted ....... turning the celly back to NA ... all i can say is that theirs a little one on the way lol i dont have the funds to keep it boosted ...... gas is crazzy right now and i need something that is 100% reliable ,,,,,, im still keeping it slammed and going to order my xxr527 soon so its going to be bad ass looking but wont have the motor to back it up lol

Well I bet it was fun when it was boosted Congrats on the little one

how did you fit that? i see that it is a bit farther back in (to clear the deeper bezzle on the AEM gauge). i got the same single DIN holder and an AEM temp gauge, but am having some issues fitting it. and how did you fasten it to the sterio brackets/frame?

thank you.

So are the gauges facing the wrong way then? Looks like they're angled towards the passenger rather than the driver...

???

? fliped it? but i do not see how that would allow for the plate to fit.. the issue i am having is that it is too long, and if mounted the way it supposed to be, the AEM bezzle inter fears with the trim to mount back on the correct way.


#gonna go and take a pic of what im having issues with brb.

just remembered the only reason it fits in my car is that i made my own mounts for the radio so that it sits higher

a couple thinks i did different //////// new kyb struts ////// took the turbo off ///// full stock exhaust ///// new rims /// euro style tow hook

Why took turbo off? Those wheels look great. Specs?
