Default Snapped some pics after GC install.

Front shot



Side shot. Waiting for springs to settle before adjusting them.


Picture of RS*R and the nasty bumper gouge.


DIY ram air intake. There's an intake tube on the front of the box that allows air passage if the tube was filled with water. 7 Months no problems. Box, tube, intake manifold is pretty cool to the touch at night after a grocery run. The 90 manifold helps too


Tube on bottom of car.


Engine Bay shot.


Sorry the pics are so big, no photo editing software to resize.

looks good, i like the intake tube, diy= , screw the high prices these days for crap that doesnt make a difference (of course there is a limit to what you can do yourself, then you are forced to pay the high prices lol )

Thanks guys. I will adjust them tonight. Gennessee is more close to UCSD. I used to live in that area when I used to go to UCSD.

The car rides so nice. Not bouncy at all, but I fear if I lower it a llittle more I will bounce a lot. But it rides tons tons better than stock. Notice how the steelies don't match? Hehe.. Thanks for the Here are some pics of the actual install process.

nice choice i adjusted my Gc's right away on my DA ...i have them set at 2.5" Front and 2.0" rear with Illuminas ...and i have as much bounce as my friend with H&R race springs with the same shocks ...adjust them and let us know how you like the ride ...

p.s. what shocks are you running?

I don't know of any spring that will settle, except maybe those rice springs from Sprint or Arospeed...

If you're using the stock upper mounts, a simple ride around the block will settle the spring into the soft upper rubber. If you're using some sort of spherical bearing upper, then this isn't a problem at all.
