yeay 2 of 3 orders are in! hopefully i get a call soon so i can go pick up my rims and tires at the tire rack distribution center.

Time to start diagnosing!



20 Lug bolt caps from ECS, got 20 so i have a few spares incase i lose a few. im gonna paint them red to match the valve caps on my rims and my brake calipers but i may leave them black we will see.

 

double post

 

and there it is...

 

stopped by tire rack warehouse today to pick up my rims and tires. went imdietly home put them on and went for a joy ride

looks and feels like a monster truck now need to lower it coilovers are next!

other than needing better suspension i fell in love with my mini again. before with my old all season skinnies i would understeer everywhere. now the car just grips everything and it feels like it over steers a little. heavy breaking feels squirly and going though crests, and just after the apex of a turn the car feels like it floats.... aka i need coilovers!

Thanks! no im going to do a cat-back, probably Invidia

 

Looks great. Very similar.

 

thanks, do you have them these rims too or do you have enkies cant tell what you have in your signiture

 

Enkei

 

so i finally installed the last of the motor mount bushings and replace my broken pcv. also removed my OCC need to find a better place to install it probably in the ABS cowl area so it stays cool.



I also have a problem with this mount can anyone that has done this mount before tell me how to get the two washers in there? i tried so many things i even took the mount off the body and out it in a vise to squeeze it tight then put that brace on it but i could not get it on i needed like another 2mm and it would not go.

 

 

thank for the encouragement

still need help on how to get those two big azz washers to fit in there.

 

Very carefully. Sorry could not resist

 

im gonna grab a few beers now lol

 

Isn't the rule of thumb always grab a bigger hammer?

 

Like this

 

Perfect. That should smash the washers thinner so they slide in easier.

 

 

oh god my sides hurt

 

Finaly got my wheel speed sensor in. installed it and the car is up and running again. abs dsc and tpms now work properly.

see no lights! :D also thought i would show off my ultra gauge.

 

Show off!! LMAO . Very nice.

 

Congrats!! Good to hear everything is good!!
