skthxx's running log
As I'm getting closer and closer to saving up enough money to dump it into the tegg, I decided to finally open a log on TI xD.

- Painting Hammerheads
Didn't Have enough paint so i just finished one and primed another. Will finish the other two when i pick up some more supplies.
The rims were in a pretty bad shape and had clearcoat stripping everywhere. Without a paint stripper it definately took longer
than it should've.
- Duplicolor Wheel Paint & Clearcoat
- 3M & BBS 120,180,220,320,600 Sandpaper
- Degreaser, water & soap
- Primez0r
+ Some stuff i bought

- Back from the dead x.x
Hey guys after like a year and a bit of taking a break from the car due to Insurance issues I got it on the road & Running today (Well yesterday). Flushed out every fluid, cleaned the breaks and mounted my WP intake & Painted Valve Cover. Finished painting my GS R Hammerheads but doesn't look too great IMO. Need to slam the car more then decide. Hoping to finish the suspension by next week. Also helped friends paint some parts. After suspension I will look into boost
Here are a few snapshots:

Decided on my temporary suspension setup. Going to run Koni Yellow Sports on Skunk2 Coilover sleeves (with adapters) until I can get my Ground Controls in. I really want the GC Tophats as well but they are expensive here (119 per piece!! - so if anyone is selling them, I'm interested.) I got the Koni's on special, PLUS a free Road Track Pass to Cayuga! Also picked up my Eibach SPC rear camber kit. I heard both bad and good things about this setup, but honestly i had the sleeves on stock shocks and it wasn't too bad. I will do a review after I put them in... Hoping to finish the rest of my suspension stuff in the next couple of weeks.
