Just thought you all would want to google over her since shes lowered now. Not sure if we're keeping her this low, and we still have to put the coilovers on the rear. Lemme know what you think!

Engine isnt completely done yet, so no joy rides have been done. The coilovers are Matrix coilovers that I had on my 5th gen. If Brent's car rides anything like mine did, which I'm assuming it will considering i just took off my entire strut assebly and put it on his car, then it rides a little rough, no bounce though. -------------------- www.tweakdperformance.com contact@tweakdperformance.com |

::UPDATE:: The Tangerine was started about a hour ago. We got the new rings seated, but didnt get to take her for a drive. We had everything all hooked up (or so we thought) and Brent went to try and crank it over to prime the motor, and got NOTHING...
 ...I then said...Brent, did you ever hook up the ECU? so we plugged in the ECU and the SAFC and gave it a second attemp....NOTHING...so we started fiddling around with other stuff. I noticed that the main fuse block on the driver front corner wasnt all back together like it should be, so I had Mark (Brent and my other roomate) check to see if everything in that fuse block was connected....it wasnt. We got those connectors all hooked up and we got her crankin!!! Needless to say, Brent is on Cloud 9 and didnt want to go to class tonight haha. The agenda for tomorrow is change the oil, top off the transmission fluid, put on the rear coilovers and take her for a drive!!!
