    Went and got a new alignment now that we have all the upgrade parts in the rear suspension, went from a ton of toe out to a bit of toe in which is nice but its still not where I would like it too be. Ended up taking 3 clicks of damping out of the rear shocks which ended up balancing the car even better, had just a touch of understeer, have not had that ever before in this car but the transition from grip to slip is very gradual and the car does give plenty of warning. Drove a fun road called Rattle Snake Grade with some friends, over 2000 feet in elevation change and a ton of turns made for a great end to my 3 day weekend

    Not much new, working on getting some new wheels and had a photo/video shoot with a local buddy. Once the video is done I will get it up here too. Some of the pictures from the shoot




    Here is a picture of the wheels I am working on getting

    Specs are 18x10 +25 front and 18x11 +38 so I could get away with a 15mm adapter in the back, looks like new front hubs will have to happen so I can have them dual drilled to work with 5x114.3 and 5x120

    So after a long wait my wheels are finally done. Saw these on threepiece.us's site and was in love.

    They has to be redrilled as they were never sold in 5x120 and I wanted a different face color, had threepiece do that while they had them. Was very excited to get this picture

    Put some 215/40 tires on them and test fit them on the car and was amazed how well they fit. Still needed to get my lug stud conversion and lug nuts on before driving it

    Threw my 90mm Condor Speed Shop lug studs on along with some GKtech lugnuts, put the original front bumper back on that is wrapped to matched and grabbed some better pictures



    I am very happy to say the least, I have wanted Riverside TrafficStar DTM's since I say them in some old Video option DVD's. More wrap and more cool parts are coming so there should be more updates soon

    Couple combined posts that I havent updated here lol
    Took a few hours and polished the lips on the new wheels and put on the red center caps, overall they look a ton better.

    Got the skirts fit, they will be wrapped and back on today but I decided to run around like a hood rat with un matched skirts for the day lol





    Rear window louvers came in, they need a little love before they go on for real but they do look pretty cool I think


    Got the skirts wrapped and installed for real today, they look a ton better

    ]
    Put my new NRG Prisma seat in on some Garageistic mounts along with NRG's neochrome and black leather steering wheel. Interior needs detailed something terrible but that will have to wait a week or so

    Front bumper got redone so I can run it, should have it wrapped in the next couple but I love how aggressive the car with it on. Amazed at how little it scrapes at this height even dropping the kids off for school in the mornings

    So there is about a month before the next Villains drift event, trying to find a 3.23 open local that I can weld up, worst case senario I run my 2.90 welded and just stay in second gear all track. Only upgrades that I am waiting on are the rear knuckle ball joint upgrade with new rear camber arms and I need to get my chassis mount shifter/dssr/tranny bushings in, this sloppy ass shifter annoys me every day, hoping I can get some time on the lift this week and get that all knocked out along with a fresh alignment. I will get some pictures up and show how bad at drifting I am haha

    Been working on the car as much as my spare time and money allow, ended up blowing both seals out the steering rack so that got replaced. Modified the front bumper and wrapped it so the car is all one color again

    Installed my CRS chassis mount shifter, Condor Speed shop solid trans mounts and a stainless steel DSSR, pretty happy with how it shifts but I still have more side to side wobble than I am happy with so I get to figure out whats causing that. I did have the shifter threaded so it takes regular shift knobs rather the stupid push on style. Oh, I also put like 3 coats of VHT wrinkle black on the shift rod, was not a fan of the bare metal look

    Love the way the car looks with the kit and everything
