lol, wanna hear the kicker? that car blew up last night 2 miles from home [/quote]
HA looks like me and PB have more that Boxers in common...both our cars went boom ....I hope he gets it running soon![/quote][/quote]
lol, never thought of that. More than likely we will be putting in a new longblock sometime within the next couple months....
We arent exactly sure as of now....0 compression in number 4 though... I think he just wants to be done with this motor and get something he doesnt have to worry about.
I haven't installed mine yet, and now that they are available to the public I can finally announce that I will be stocking/carrying them. I also was to unveil them at CMP if I had gone.

i'm curious to hear your feedback though.
Me too.
The car felt amazing! I was speaking to Andy at cmp and told him if I could do it over again I'd do the bushings first. The car was already "stiff" with the suspension, the bushings kinda tied it all together. Everything felt smoother, steering, braking, ride, other than the brake problems I was having, the car was perfect IMO.
<tried searching google for my threads on HT, no luck.
Any increase in squeaking? Stiffer ride off track?
Sucks about the old threads, maybe in a few days once the transition is complete you'll be able to find your threads. Are you able to find the tranny/diff rebuild?
I'm doing them all shortly. That, along with the JimFab mounts, I hope to tie mine together as well. Always feels "not exact" to me. Hoping to help my turn in a bit, along with the new alignment specs I'm shooting for.

Thats one of the reasons I'd liked to have done the bushings first, the ride was stiff before, so I cant really comment on how stiff they will be. I did however notice that I feel the road more....if that makes any sense to you guys.

Thats how mine has been, like I said before though, car felt perfect this past weekend. It took me a few sessions on saturday to get the feel, I felt completely confident with it at the end of the day sunday. Went thru the carusel a few times with rear swinging and was able to pull right out of it. I think patrick got a good viewing of one of those.

Any body get any in car footage? I'd love to see that!!!
Glad to hear that it made such a difference for you. I'll look at the pricing and get back to you guys what the kits are gonna cost. I do know it's the whole kit, and not just individual pieces. However I'm also thinking about purchasing a few sets, and breaking them up should someone just want 1 or 2 of the kit.
