Me, couple of friends, in a garage with a broken air gun. Took about 5-6 hours...probably worth having it done at a shop for $150-200. Could do it a lot quicker now...but there's rear bolt on the control arm we had to remove that runs into the exhaust. Removing exhaust hangers SUCKS!

Car looks good tho.

Not sure how the front on the xi would work. The whole shock assembly compresses and leans out on the front...not sure what the axle would think about that. The DIY on here shows you how to cheat. Doing it properly would require specialized tools.

I got left out of the modding loop.

Im not lowering the 330 till it needs sussy. If that happens.

Looks really good Nate...now you need to attend one of my "how to drive a lowered car and not scrape the front end" classes. These are held on the third Sunday of the forth month that end in a 'y'

coco_m3 · 01-11-2010, 05:01 AM

Nate that looks awesome!
Good thing you put those to good use, they were doing nothing sitting in my basement.
How's the ride?

Park2670 · 01-11-2010, 08:51 AM

Ah I was wondering where they came from! Nice of you to be so useful Jeff!

How's the ride?

A little more sporty...but nothing outrageous.

Even though it's only an inch...dropping my fat ass into the seat has become more of a chore.

Is there a P90X DVD for that?

I suspect that tuning the radio won't be any different than it is now.

Park2670 · 01-11-2010, 02:27 PM

Hahaha good one Scott!

SLCGoonski · 01-11-2010, 02:55 PM

Yes...p90x plyo is good for that. Kicked my ass yesterday.

Das M · 01-11-2010, 06:16 PM

Hello everybody!

When is our next dinner meet? We need one soon!

SLCGoonski · 01-11-2010, 08:38 PM

I'm available (but not this Wednesday, next Tuesday, or the following Wednesday nights...and maybe not a couple of other nights depending on what my wife has scheduled for me).
