No. I took this fckup as a sign that I was rushing things. So the install won't happen until sometime in May.

I'm good with it. The meet-up will give me lots of examples on what to expect, so that's cool. Plus, it gives you yahoos something to mock me out for.

No mocking coming from me, I'm rocking a 4x4 stance here man.

I'm interested to see the drops and whether there have been the need for any camber kits. I'm starting to wonder if I should just install springs while getting the brakes swapped out on mine.

I dunno man, I think your car looks great. I'm looking forward to seeing it in person.

But the car is faster now right!? Because, GT-R parts.

I like them a lot better. Did you go back to the bulbs or are you running LEDs?

Dropped on Swift Springs

Swift Springs were installed today. Come find out my driver's side tie-rod end is hosed, and there's this weird squealing noise now in reverse (WTF?) But turns out I can get up my driveway without scraping (Yay!) And the car feels identical in comfort compared to the OEM springs.

Some pics:

Tie rod end, with that little mileage? Our cars seem to wear funny at times. Maybe they all do and it just seems that way since we're here talking about it?

Will you be able to get so,e spirited driving in on some twisties soon?
