- Tue Sep 03, 2013 10:21 pm #336308 haha thanks man, and I am planning on runing Function & Form Type 2 with upgraded Spring Rates, so I can run stanced for shows and fun, or run a good damper and spring for AutoX and Circuit.

I am planning on running 12K Front and 10K Rear Springs on Function & Form Type 2 Coilovers

*Plus that 3-wheelin' picture is always sexy. =P

- Thu Sep 05, 2013 9:08 pm #336380 yeah I have a good plan set up, I just need to get off my ass and do it.
With a 10 month old daugter at home, she never lets me leave the room without following me, plus now she can climb up stairs so I need to watch her now, $200 a peice for swinging baby gates are rediculous, I need like 6 for my house. lol

but I am just saving up some money right now and selling some old parts, that way when tax season comes again I will be ordering a crate full of parts and get on rebuilding it.

Right now I am just trying to get the quarters welded in and the engine bay all welded up so I can start on the body work. I want to have all the body work and engine bay painted, and the car wrapped before christmas.

Thats my goal.

- Thu Sep 05, 2013 10:42 pm #336384 Sounds like a good plan. I just bought a Rex and when I get that thing up and running and I can daily that I have big plans for my eg hatch. But that's a little while down the road. I will have to make a post on that. :thumb:

- Wed Sep 11, 2013 8:46 pm #336591 Yeah thats the part I am not looking forward to. The last time I did any Autobody was way back in high school. I did go to Nationals though so maybe I still got it. =P

- Wed Sep 18, 2013 9:08 pm #336846 nice pickup on the parts. my $0.02 is that you don't need the lower tie bar if you have install your asr subframe brace.

the 24mm rear sway bar will make a HUGE difference. I have a ITR 22mm one currently.

- Wed Sep 18, 2013 9:31 pm #336847 Thanks. And yeah I used to have the 22 with an old subframe brace before on my CRX and I figured I may as well go all out if I'm redoing the entire suspension. Plus the tie bar is just more for the bling. =)
