Yes, I know what you mean. I have the 1 piece Ds and the UCA going in next week (stupid back order)!

I think I'm gonna go ahead and get the K member for next week too (it's only fair since I gotta wait anyways).
That 1-piece DS should be a nice more for your car.
The way you have it decked out now, that mod should really shine.

How do you like the 3.73 gears, are you an auto or manual?
Why not go for 3.90 or 4.10s?
After my suspension is done I will get a CAI and Tune then new gears; I am still not sure what to go with.

I'm a manual myself. I went 373 because I plan to drop a KB in the old engine come November (little birthday present). I just felt like 410's would be a little tough to handle with the SC, I'm old and my foot work aint what it used to be.

LOL, I hear ya.
I am a manual as well and i have the 3.55s.
I don't see a KB anywhere in my near future, no funds for that. [:'(]

How noticable was the change in gear, did you go from 3.55 to 3.73?

Very nice, make sure to take a ton of before and after pics. None of these crappy ones that are dark and you really can't see where the tires end and the wheel well begins. I was thinking of getting this setup myself.

HUBA HUBA!!! [sm=smiley27.gif]
ManI should have gotten red that looks good as hell; I just couldn't see spending the extra money for it when it is under the car.
What are those parts right under the rear sway bar and inbetween the panard brace and rear sway?

That is the exact setup I am going with right there, I just need to get the rest of it and have it installed.
It will prolly be November before I can get everything and get it installed; I can't wait. [sm=wootwoot.gif]

When are you doing yours torch or is yours already in like your sig shows?
Did you replace the strut caps with some metal camber plates?

Wow! I'm drained and I'm just getting started. After all my research on this site and others, this is almost exactly what I'm about to order for my 05. The only real changes are to us the Steeda Ultra lite Springs because they supposedly give a better daily driver experience. I do a lot of street driving besides the weekend track days. Has anyone put in this set up and cancomment on the street ride after?
