my suspension is finally installed...

[solarasweetie]

and it only took a few hours.

so i went with the trd's from krawzyazn (mark) and tein's. [thanks marky-mark]

i must say... that even though i didnt install the springs and struts themselves, i was in charge of figuring out where the strut mount was.
f*ck me dude. why the hell did it have to be where it is. holy cow man.
i called mark in a frantic like... "soOooOo... which panel do u have to take out exactly?"

i ended up saying f*ck it. im taking it all out.
i basically removed the entire rear. everything.
and.... i honestly will admit. that i didnt finish putting it back together.
i f*uked up on a panel. so i said f*ck it, and i'll finish it tomorrow.
and i'll post pics tomorrow too... i forgot to take a pic of the before and after shot... but i did take a picture of the work i did

anyway. i kinda just wanted to vent on how much of a pain in the arse it is to install the suspension. gosh. i have scratches all over my arms. and i broke a nail. and all my figer nails are dirty. and im sweaty. ew.

on a lighter note... i love the way it feels. man its so stiff. [hah. thats what she said lol] but yeah. thanks again marky for the struts and for trying to help me on the phone. i know i kinda wish i just took it somewhere.. but honestly, now if anyone needs help gutting the back of your gen 1. i do a pretty darn good job.

okay. i'm going to bed now. and i'll post pictures (hopefully) tomorrow.

Worthless without Pics???????????????????????

[solarasweetie]

okay. pics are here. and there's not very many. but you guys are just going to have to deal. the first 2 are of the gutted out back. my part. they gave me the fu*cking hard part. anyway. here you go.



and this is the result. and no marky, my mom didnt notice. she doesnt notice those kinds a things. she might notice like a couple months or a year down the line.


but yeah. thats it. im still tired. and my arms are effen sore.

how come it is so hard to install on the regular model?? i have a convertible and all i had to do was take out the back carpet right where the window is. lolz

[Sap Z]

wait so you installed the springs and struts urself?

[solarasweetie]

pfff. heck no. are you kidding me.
no i just did the gutting and putting back together of the rear. the boys did the springs and struts.
but they did just sit around and watch me gut the car until i found the tower mount.
