From the words of Keegan "I don't think I'm going to go any lower."

BLASPHEMY!

i don't believe i've ever heard keegan say those words in that order

Mrgreeneyes, since you're getting rid of your SOHC for an SR, you should sell me the distributor and MAF. Like, NOW.

What's that dirt on Didderson's chin?

I keed I keed.

Those tires are certainly meaty.

Finish the car up.

Gotta love aero. I wonder how long will it be before I see zip ties holding cracks together on the front bumper from our messed up roads and city lots.

Sweet bro; update.

We burned out the bushings in the new subframe last night. It was fun because Keegan found lighter fluid. The whole rear suspension has been dropped. There's a good chance more will get done tomorrow as it's Keegan's day off.

Post by **White Comet** » Tue Jun 16, 2009 8:01 am

i was gonna try and get some help on my car, but everyone in lancaster is helping keegan instead

Post by **Bumnah** » Tue Jun 16, 2009 11:09 am

Why is everyone except mrgreeneyes updating his build thread?

Looking at the rear sub frame pics, I'm so glad I'm done with that stage of the build.

What a f'n pain.

Man I've lost track of time, has your car been down since the black ice incident? I don't feel like reading through the whole thread again to find out haha.

Post by **ILoveMyRHS13** » Tue Jun 16, 2009 5:27 pm

Yeah, the car has been down the whole time. Messed up the whole driver's side front of the suspension. Instead of just replacing the stuff, MGE upgraded everything.

Post by **Chris28** » Tue Jun 16, 2009 5:31 pm

Yeah I remember him saying something about while he was fixing stuff, he might as well upgrade haha.

Anyways, it's looking good. Can't wait to see it all one color and on the ground.

Post by **ILoveMyRHS13** » Sat Jun 20, 2009 11:03 am

Here I am... Again. Small update for ya.

Painted the LCAs and knuckles and threw the PBM arms on. Looks good.

PS- You can see Tree's paper weight RX7 in the back ground.

hey man, good build man.....you should let me know how the pdm coilovers feel

Post by **ILoveMyRHS13** » Sat Jun 20, 2009 2:14 pm

I can tell you right now that they're AMAZING. They're not for the weak of heart. I just recently purchased them and I've ridden in Keegan's car. I would recommend them only if you have, uh, what are those things, balls? Yeah.

Post by **White Comet** » Sat Jun 20, 2009 5:50 pm

i love how they feel, i dont consider myself to be hardcore or anything but the ride feels easily acceptable on the street.

Post by **Didderson** » Sun Jun 21, 2009 7:12 pm

The ride is acceptable yes, but when taking on pot holes or large "ruts" be prepared for your foot to possibly jostle the throttle lol. You may find yourself waiting a bit for the smoother sections of road to shift on especially if you know the roads like I do.It's all in fun though, just gives the car more character!

Hey man you left the extra RUCA nut and washer at my place when you left last time, I'll bring it w/ me.Bah nvmd, edit bc that car cover is on the s5 vert. I thought it ran now qq.Good update, but you could have used my rustoleum orange lol...

Post by **ILoveMyRHS13** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 1:27 pm

Rear subframe.

New exhaust. GP Sports - $100

Goes back together thursday. Updates then.

PS- Here's Keegan fitting the aero to MY car; sexy.

Post by **Dizel01** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 1:57 pm

Post by **Didderson** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 6:14 pm

Looks great dudes. I'm excite to hear your exhaust. No pre muffler resonator FTW. The SR is going to sound soooooo goooooood.

Nice front bumper. +1 urethane wins, now you can go as low as you want.

Post by **Dizel01** » Tue Jun 23, 2009 9:01 pm

Urethane! I want urethane too! Fiberglass eats the c***.

i respect that, battles are tough;and you can always try a slimmer tire later.
