Pics with Tein S-Techs installed
Spring install went well, apart from the fact that my rear left strut went out on me and I was forced to sideline the car for the weekend. I HATE BAMA ROADS...lemme just get that out there.
Anywho, $67 dollars later, I was back in business....until Miller (AnarchistChiken) and I had a convo about the set he had laying in his garage (So, I got my money back
). So, roadtrip it was....jumped in the GS-T and headed upstate to B'ham. Hmmm, wonder where we could meet up? See below if you're curious.

Miller...you're such a pimp dude.
Anyway...those streaks on the wheel are...yup you guessed it....baaaaah.
So...anyway...I'm getting rims anyway. Oh yeah...thanx Miller for letting me borrow that spare wheel you had also...no more flat spot action...lol.
Oh yeah...the only payment for the hookup...was well...Hooters wings and curly fries. You can't beat that w/a baseball bat.
Thanks again bro...good looking out.

miller let you borrow a wheel and he got fed? wow...with all the free work I've been doing I should live in a castle and have my own autobiographical movie about me starring Kevin James (or Larry the Cable Guy).
springs look good. You should've gotten a before and after pick of the exact same angle to show the difference.

Just fyi, 5 hours of strut/spring install @ $65/hr (typical shop rate) = $325. But who's counting??

i meant the work I did would've cost $325. That's why I'm not doing any more freebies. I'm tired of watching everyone else get their cars modified while I'm sitting around wondering when I'll be able to do something to my own. It's one thing to be a nice guy it's another to just be gullable and feel used.
get a set of sways on your car and you'll really feel the difference in those springs.
