I'm getting crazy close and am just waiting on my local garage at the moment.

Garage needs to:

Mount my front falkens
press out my front arm bushings (so I can paint)
press out my hubs (so I can paint)
swap 5spd tran cases for my LSD trans

Otherwise, I have everything (including the colts) waiting with the exception of my F33i calipers being machined a bit.




So, I'm thinking in a couple weeks I could use a hand for the grand/final build before I fire it up.

it's cause it's not giving the full link because of the brackets in there
you can see how part of the link is white/normal text while the rest is a clickable link.

this is solved using our handy URL button we have or by putting the URL in between these
