Some times you need a push to get somthing done.
But from what iv seen and driven, dont get this set up.
Iv never been in somthing this stiff, i thought at one point i lost 2 fillings.

I'm not sure if makes a difference but I think you may have your rear camber kit installed upside-down. I think it's supposed to be installed looking like this:

Regardless, lookin' awesome!

^ if so i had mine the same way i figured if the upper part of the arm was lower it would clear the wheels easier. i never had a issue with them that way at least... alighment was golden.... so i dont think it really matters.

Some things were done yesterday.
We went ahead and did the shifter,first we sliced off the lip where the stock shifter poped out of, just to see where we had to cut the floor.
We thought we were going to have to cut a hole in the floor like what they do for a K swap, but the shifter fits like a H22, nice and very little room under the center console.

After we hooked up the cables to the tran's we went ahead to hook up the cable to the throttle body............but the cable was way way to long, so we had to custom make our bracket =)
