first off we'll start with new sway bar, went with ASR 25mm and new end links. quality looks great and everything fit really good, here it is compared to the old ITR

bought a rear diffuser also, still figuring out how to mount but that'll come later in the year

next came j's racing axle back. I didn't mind the Greddy that I had but wanted to try something different and also get some JDM style points. I would still love to have a Mugen twin loop though, maybe when I find a good deal on one

got an AEM afr gauge installed also, very easy install. made my own mount for the gauge from some aluminum angle iron and valve cover studs. could look better but I like that I made it and it does its purpose

Got a remote tune a few days before the first event, Derf tune was able to squeeze out 20hp which was great. First autocross of the season and ended up in 2nd place. It was cold and damp most of the day so I ran the re71'r which were only .5 seconds behind 1st on hoosier's. also got an alignment which was way off so hopefully make the 71's last a bit more

the old plastic splitter blade was really starting to warp due to heat so I had to find a stiffer material. have always read about alumilite, so I went and bought a sheet. you can see the difference right away
