that car is crazy.

And this coilover job is pissing me off, like nobody could imagine... these damn bolts that hold the upper control arms together are INSANE.

Perhaps keep a lethal dose of heroin handy? Yeah, this **** makes me wanna die... and might as well go out big.

lol, seriously though... this stupid bolt is the devil... the front drivers side is done... the front passenger side is not. I gave up on it for the night... i tried bypassing the cursed bolt, by instead going at the upper control arms from where they attach at the back (further inside the wheel well... but nooo... I undid the big 3 bolts up top, and I couldn't get the assembly to lower AT ALL... therefore, I couldn't get the upper right hand side control arm's bolt out, since it's too close to the wheel well.

I am gonna do it the hard way tomorrow, I guess... and the rears are SUPPOSED to be a lot easier. Hopefully this is indeed the case.

PS: the front drivers side looks PIMP! The camber is effin crazy though... lol, I think i'll be raising it a bit, I cant afford to wear tires prematurely.

yes, I likely will never stop thinking about it... won't sleep... haha.

I will not be happy, or relieved for that matter, until the car is sitting how I want it, and I know my camber is OK... so pic's wont blow anybody away, because I refuse to lower it as much as I'd like to, because we don't have enough camber adjustment to save my tires... and I just blew over 8 bills on tires -- something I will not be able to do again in the near future :P

but, I'm sure it'll look OK
