Bumper off, replacing condensers & dryer tomorrow, before professional re-gas. Usual crud in/on the radiators. Zunsport grilles fitted to bumper too.

Washed and detailed the 7TT and the RC-F. The 7TT gets the garage for now. Planning on Bilstein B16 Damptronics with DSC. But currently working the numbers to maximize wheel and tire width and going to find who can make the multispoke style we like. Just bought a new brake setup since the current ones are on their last leg, Sebro rotors and EBC Red for now.

Rebuilt the front drive shafts CV joints because 3 of 4 were leaking. Even at 75% leaking, there were fewer leakers as a percentage than DC. Installed an Eibach rear sway bar because I was bored. Didn't matter what sway bar to me as I don't track this car. Installed new Rennline adjustable motor mounts - old OEM's were toast. I hear a new humming of some type from the tail - can't quite put a finger on it yet but it's like a gear whine. Had a four wheel alignment just for fun. Painted the Y-pipe and netted another 18hp. Bored. Engine out and Sharkwerks coolant pipes at the end of the month. Will still be bored. Be well.



Swapped charcoal cabin filter like <AtotheJZA70>. Swapped stock air filter for a BMC. No clue why I didn't do this years ago.

They’re awesome. I like them, and got a really good deal on them too. Very reminiscent of the Kumho XS but better. They grip very well, are predictable and have great steering input. I know it’s frowned upon since like 90% of the people here like Michelin. But I’m willing to try out the tires in our sizes to get a feel for what I like.

But yeah it’s been raining here. Luckily I was able to enjoy a brief period from my tire guy to home with a semi dry 405.

In response to NSXavier. It's MY car and he did a great job. I'm very happy. I wrote something up in the East regional forum.

directly from zunsport. If you do a search for discount code on the forum you will find codes that still work for 10-15% off. If you don't find any that work pm me and ill send you my membership card that I got when I ordered which will also give you 10% off.

Let it have some sun for the first time in 6 months. Still a few weeks before any driving.
