05/20/09 - Suspension installation:
Part 3
So here's what I did
the past couple of days:
Installed new front hubs, ireland engineering stage 3 springs,
bilstein sport struts and new OEM strut mounts. Everything is
tight and new.
Also did the rear wheel bearings, with new OEM backing plate (required
to hold the ebrake components)
Then I por15'd the trunk area. I am going to put rhinoliner
over the top of this when it's dry. I like the protection
that POR15 gives, but like the finish of the rhinoliner. So
this is the best of both worlds.
I am going to paint the cage some zany color, only in the
trunk. Thoughts?
Once that is all done, I'll install these new bilstein shock setups
(with new upper mounts), along with ireland springs and M3 perches.
Next I snapped some pics of some of the parts I have laying around for
this thing:
FPR, fuel filter, catch can, fittings for 044 pump, injectors, water
pump, AEM serial gauge, AEM EMS, Tial 35mm WG and tial 50MM BOV.
And some more stuff:
Momo 300mm wheel, turbo timer (for ricers, prob won't install), 4
greddy warning gauges (I think I have 2 more somehere), AEM UEGO
controller, Corbeau Harnesses (rest of harness not pictured)
Lastly, took some long overdue pics of my wheels. The FIT,
thank god... Checked em out today... I'll need t
buy rubber soon.
