Man this a super clean car for being a first build! Are your wheels the rota track r's? And what size? You should get some gold lca's next and silver subframe brace!

^ you should look into those parts
I have the blue BWR lac's and BWR black subframe brace both relativley cheap parts and i love them.
the lca bolts are notorious for being difficult to get out though so be prepared for that if you do decide to change them out.

Haha sometimes its not the camera, its the photographer that determines the outcome of the photo. =)

I appreciate it! And I barely turned 17, funded this whole project, did most of the things by myself, and still learning as I go. They are Rota Track R's, 15x7 +40 offset. I never thought of getting the LCA's and subframe brace, but now that I think of it, it'll look great. Definitely going on my list for sure. Thanks for the input.

Planning that for sure!

This shot makes me want side markers again. How hard was it to make the harness? I know nothing when it comes to wiring.
I bought the sidemarkers with the harness already, which is recommended just to make things easier. I extended the wires using 16 gauge wires and used splice connectors or butt connectors which can all be bought at Home Depot for about less than $10. I knew nothing about wiring either, but it's super easy! Theres a guide telling you which wires to tap into according to your preference.

what lca's and subfrmae brace are you thinking about getting?
I was looking at BWR or Blox. I've read about them and people are saying eBay lca's work great also. I doubt it but anyone have experience with this? I feel like some people buy Blox just for the name.

People have said eBay LCA's hold up just as good as brand name ones, so im still researching.

*cough cough cough* what? No I didn't... Lol yeah I have blox lca in red, super good quality in the arms but like previously stated, since feb when I installed them,when I put my ff type 1 s in a month or 2 ago, the bushings were gone. I may recommend a lca with polyurethane bushings. And as for the subframe brace, ASR, in this economy it doesn't hurt to buy American whenever possible. Plus fitment was ~choice~! (False setto) lol

Cheap lcas and energy suspension bushings and you should be good. I've been looking at converting everything to bearings

I'll hold back on that for now, cause I keep running into problems with the car but i'm getting things done little by little. I don't think the car has even been looked at in the last 229k miles. Anyway, changed my brake pads today, did a passenger wire tuck and got some cleaning supplies.

I'll be doing the driver side tuck when I free up some time after the holidays. Also my HID kit went out, it was junk anyway, gives me an excuse to get a new one. What are some good kits out there? Has anyone ever ordered HiPro Kits?
