Great photos. I take a look at your updates and see if I can learn new things.

It's amazing over the past six years how much I've learned from you, Steve, babalouie, Marc shaw and on and on....rennlist has made owning my car possible, cuz if you don't do your own work, you'd better be ready to throw 50k at a car worth 35....and even then, there's more to throw at it...

Loving the engine rebuild thread. I'm dying to build an engine stand like yours and permanently mount it to the floor.

Keep it up.

Many of us lurk and sometimes pose questions. Please keep posting, it'll give people ideas, point of reference and hopefully learn something in the process. I personally enjoy this thread very much, it gave me a list of ideas to do over winter to my car

I know you guys are using ER bushings. Have you seen the FVD front and rear bushing kits?

$134.24 per arm.

Made to RS spec. Seems like a legit deal.

Those look remarkably similar to the elephant bushings...

Except that elephant tells you exactly the difference from stock. I'm suprised fvd doesn't...cuz "RS" means nothing to me...
