    Haha yeah i can do all that, though a better quality base image would be nice. What you listed is about 10 minutes of work on a better picture but on this i'll probably end up tinkering for hours.

    I'll wait for your response before i start working on it. If you could provide a better quality, preferably daytime pic i'd be happy, but if you cant i can use this one no problem.

    oil pans are expensive when all the oil leaves your engine and the engine seizes.

    you can't make a long distance phone call but you can afford to lower your car?

    Blue light special.

    Before you do ANY lowering, you need to go install a Kmac eccentric rear bushing set ($249-$299 parts, 8+ hours labor install, or a minimum of 12 hours labor if you have a lift, airtools, and possibly a press. If you do not have a lift, you can not install them yourself) or modify the existing subframe to give TOE and Camber adjustment. At my existing ride height, with the kmac's set to 0, toe spec was ~1 degree POSITIVE and camber was just over 3.5 degrees. That spec if uncorrected means buying new tires every 3000 miles. Or a complete set every 6000 if you rotate front to rear.


    There are better pics on DTMPower IIRC, and multiple vids of badmannersgod 's iT on youtube.

    repentokyo: For real? I thought the Oil was just some dealer excuse to charge you more money. No point of calling if they can't offer anything.

    There you go.

    attack eagle: Good to see you here. I have a lift, airtools, press, etc.
    Which bushings are these? Can you link me to the Kmacs rear bushings?
    Also, whats your current ride height that you have the Kmacs to 0

    Dave M: How much was the Eibach/Boge upgrade
    1) As printed on the BMA page I linked for you, they have a toll free 1-888 #.

    2) Bought the boge struts/shocks from BMA ~$75 a corner. Purchased Eibach pro kit in Calgary (was driving through) for ~ $400.
