Installed the AEM Wideband, due to a year of my LC-1 not fucking working. Next some lousy pics in an A-pillar pod I got to mount this thing in. It works! Even with the uber-lousy after-the-cat O2 bung placement. (**** you Speed Factory in El Paso)
Cell Phone pics!

I got the A-pillar pods and LED instrument lights in last night. I will get some picks of the A-pillar today sometime.
Here is a daytime pic of the A-pillar.

I installed the Hurst STS this weekend with the Saab aluminum shifter mount bushings.
Pros:
Didn't have to re-adjust the shifter cables, reverse lockout works, stiffer setup and smaller throws noted especially 2-3, 3-4.
Cons:
**** 07 center consoles for having the god damn cup holders as an integral part of the entire console.
With the bushings its nice and solid in shifts, but it twists about a 1/4 turn slightly....
But my shifter doesn't look like a normal Hurst, I polished it down to the aluminum. Ill get pics when its daylight. I didn't have time before due to another redline in my driveway getting a CX racing HE installed. oh yeah **** GM hose clamps too.

Got the FE5 control arms in and installed. Hosed my alignment during the process but ended up with more positive caster in the end. Good stuff.

Sweet ride man, what made you decide to replace the control arms?

The redlines have the steel stamped arms from the FE3 cars. Using the FE5 arms I get lighter and stronger arms, it also gave me more positive caster in the process.
