Thought so, I just did mine too.
If you've done a GT2 slave conversion, you can use a tiptronic one to eliminate the fluid lines.

I replaced the front trunk struts - they were getting too weak to hold up the hood. $40 each at my dealer and about 5 minutes of total install time and I'm good to go.

Thanks.

Stop which part? Modding in general or wrapping parts in alcantara?

Thanks. I'm running bilstein b8 struts and h&r springs. There is a pretty lengthy thread I started last year on the other form if you want to learn more. It is a great setup but contemplating on selling this setup and going with ohlins.

Leaky KW V3s got rebuilt. Apparently caught it before oil in the shocks got contaminated. Off to the track next week.

Getting prepped for track day on 3/11... boost leak check, basic maintenance, going to do some datalogs tonight to make sure the tune is dialed in and running well.. tomorrow going to change out to Pagid RS29 pads, flush out the fluid to Endless 650.

Washed her, checked tire pressure and oil, and burned through nearly a full tank of gas on a canyon run.

I love this car.

Took her (and the CTT) to Das Renn Treffen here in Miami. Met a few other owners. Ran in a Police escorted rally through the city! TOTAL blast!

Jason, are you referring to my black car (OZ Formula HLT) or the grey tt (BBS E88) in the last pic?

Thanks, yeah I re-tweaked suspension height for the show (lowered the front more, lol). Didn't have any scraping issues so I'm probably going to leave it at the lower height and re-align her.

Ordered Öhlins R&T, but I'll have to wait for another month or so as winter just won't let go!!
