    Kartboy rear shifter stay bushing

    TIC shift pivot bushing
    Group N trans mount
    Kartboy tranny crossmember bushings

    I love them. Cheap upgrade with results you can feel for sure. The only thing is I wish I had the kartboy ss. The thing is I got the Factory ss for $50.00 I couldnt pass it up.

    Sways and links are on the list really close to the springs. I think the springs first cause of the thinknessof the sways. I think I am going with 25mm front and rear at this point (not set in stone). I dont want any weird affects or anything with the thick sways and stock springs and struts. Thats why i think the springs are first. I am going with the epic springs. I have been hearing they are not much of a drop no more than 1 inch and by the pics levels out the car nice. I dont want to go to low either and I dont think that 1 inch is going to effect me to much. I got the lock bolts in today. If you ever do them get yourself a pipe cleaning tool from your local hardware or home improvment store. That thing cleans the threads the bolt goes into and makes it so easy. Just FYI. I installed the following stuff in the car. Had to make 2 messages. lol

    yeah i read the post u put up about it that sucks. i got the shifter and all the bushings put in except the lock bolt. i am having some trouble with the lock bolts. the car is so much better feeling. theres aliitle more noise since the bushings but its not really all that bad. waiting for another nice weekend for the rest cant wait.

    goodluck on the not holding as much part lol. it took our daughter awhile to not hold her all the time. now shes finally to the point where she even would rather walk in stores than ride in the cart. sometimes thats nice. we are fine. i just wish winter would end everytime we plan something i gotta go to work cause of snow. not only that i want spring to get here so i can install some goodies for the wrx. i got a short shifter with all the bushings, group n trans mount, (picked up yesterday) trans cross member bushings, rear subframe lock bolts, outrigger bushings, rear diff bushings, and a gauge pod (got yesterday also) for my defi gauges i got 6 months ago and havent installed yet. my wife was good to me this year on christmas. my plan is to do suspension stuff first. next winter maybe epic springs and struts then sways after that. hows the motor coming along? i hope everything went well with it except it happened. but atleast now you know what you got under the hood.

    wow he is getting big. yea i bet its a pain but its for his own good. it will get better. we r still thinging about it we havent made the decision yet. its getting really easy as far as getting back to normal with sleep and eating and stuff like that. kinda hate to go back. lol. we r waiting till atleast next fall or january then we will decide. the only thing that was not good with our holiday was that my grandmother passed away on christmas night. she had cancer. it started in her lungs and liver. she had beat that and it all went away. then about a month later it showed up in her brain. that couldnt be treated as well as the rest and she passed away from it. the funnny thing well not funny but she never drank and she smoked very little and quit like 15 yrs ago. good luck with everything and talk to u soon.

    Yes, the WRX was supposed to replace the Z. Now I have both and I flop back and forth between selling the Z every week. This week, I'm not selling it. :)

    Thank you. My SI was great. I don't have it anymore though. I moved to south Texas and ended up getting a 350Z. I still have the Z but I barely drive it. :(

    hey just to avoid threadjacking- my fiance had a toyota soarer (sc300 in the states) & an FD rx7. his old business partner currently has an aristo, 2 skylines, a supra, & a bunch of other RHD stuff.
