  3. i got my caliper paint at autozone... it came in a kit by duplicolor with caliper cleaner, the paint, and a brush... you have to buy the clear separately, but i just got the high temp clear by duplicolor.... i painted mine with the calipers still on the car... and what i did was covered the rotors with newspaper and taped it on and taped the other parts you don't want to paint... everything i've read said use 91 octane... however an interesting fact i found out from a sewell employee is that they fill the cars up with 87 octane at the dealership.... kinda makes you wonder eh?.... and no sorry no bbq for this kid.... i used the day for recoop from the night of trash can punch that preceded it.... apparently i had a very good time!!! lol anyways good luck with the project!!! and remember if i can do it, you can do it!!
  4. enemy....lol
  5. and yes i have already taken care of the "void" in my tool selection... lol... first thing i did as soon as i finished up!!!
  6. i'm thinking a good catback and maybe an underdrive pulley for now until i completely rule out turbo....
  7. haha thanx!!!
  8. i don't know about snow.... but mine has a snow button.... i'm not sure, but i think when you push it it turns your car into a snow mobile or something....
  9. thanks!!!!! i couldn't have done it without your help.... i really really appreciate it btw!!!! ...and i was wondering about the lowering thing.... it dropped almost an inch..... and the ride..... to be honest i'd say is actually smoother than stock.... if that even makes sense.... but yet with the whole stiffer when turning..... i like it!! i really do... i was out playing afterwards in the rain.... just like from the movie cars..... turn right to turn left..... bwahahahahahahahahahahahaha....... oh and i did it different than the instructions you gave me on the front..... instead of taking the sway bar and all that off.... i just unbolted the bottom of the ball joint i think is what it is and just moved it out of the way and pulled out the strut.... don't know if that was easier or not..... but i didn't have a 5mm allen wrench... lol... of all the things not to have.... i had the 6 for the back but no 5..... lol.... but anyways it's done.... thanks again!!!! now for some go fast stuff!!!
  10. ok here be the peektures.... and it was raining so deal with it!! lol
  11. all done!!!! finally.... and you wouldn't believe the hell i've been through today.... lol... i broke a ratchet and a 1/2 to 3/8 adapter.... and had to use a friggin torch on one of the bolts for like 10 minutes and use a 24" breaker bar to get the sorry piece of crap out.... anyways that sucks, the rest went pretty smooth.... but i love it!!!! it looks great!!! as soon as the my fiancee gets here with the camera i'll post some pics..... so until then.... ima go eat... peace, love, and a stapler.... i'm out......
  12. sorry no 300, best i got was like a 153.......
  13. turn the wheel the opposite the side you are working on all the way..... use flat blade screw driver and pop the two black circles holding the plastic wheel well moulding.... fold back the plastic and stick your arm in there.... use a 10mm wrench to undo the nuts on the back of the sidemarkers.... pop it out and change bulb.... tada!!!
