Probably not a big deal to most of you on here but it's snowing here. Give Seattle even a trace of snow and everyone freaks out and panics when driving. Have about three inches at my house and for those of you who know we get snow like once a year or once every other year lol. People leave their cars all over the road like it's the end of the world, yet there is only an inch on the ground haha. Barely got this picture of a small semi split in half by a light pole on the freeway, it's right in front of the passing semi. Pondering my next purchase and I'm gonna try and get a new sig made here soon.
Update: Got the shift **** and extension. The ball wheighs over a pound and boy can you tell lol. Shifts real smooth even with the extension. I love the look of extensions and just wanted to see how this looked. I'm sure a lot of people don't like it though. I might still upgrade to a single bend short throw but for now this works perfectly fine.
eh i don't really know. My car is so low and stiff that i really cant tell. It's more of comfort thing for me. Ive had some kind of pillar bar on all of my cars lol. Yeah i need a new e-brake boot.
Update: Havent done much since I spent so much during the holidays. The weather is getting really cold so I think swapping my motor is gonna be a spring/summer thing. In the mean time I'll get new wheels and such along some other small things. I'm still desperately looking for a front lip too.
Today I finally lowered the back of the car more. After looking at it I realized I have almost no shock travel. So, I decided to shorten up the bump stops and came up with an idea to make a little bit of a DIY extended top hat. Gave me about 3/4 of an inch and I was surprised I've never heard of anyone doing it. I mean I'm sure its been done before but here are some pictures of what i did.


Instead of those rubber pieces in the top hat being split between the top and bottom, I took the bottom one out and relocated it up top to give me some more shock travel. Plan on doing the fronts sometime soon.

Personally i like the shorter ones better but with the boot on it it makes it look mucho better.
