LOL 7/10 ppl on this forum proble cant even put their own CAI on let alone swap out the rears.. I wouldnt feel bad because you dont have time to do it, your not missing much it was pretty simple.

This is the plan, I'm just looking patiently for the best deal out there for an IRS. Ppl here in CA want way too damn much for an IRS set up. Waiting patiently will reward me soon.

I have to ask if you tried bargaining with anyone about one. My buddy just got a back-up for his 03 cobra for $350 and the guy originally was asking $700...so you see, a lot of guys put the prices high thinking that if someone buys it at that price, they made out like a bandit. But these guys are just wanting to get rid of them so if youre serious, start offering people $400 with rear shocks and ABS sensors and see where you get. You dont need the brakes cus you have the same brakes as cobras do already. If you find one thats already built with bushings, i'd go as high as $1000 if its built with delrin control arm bushings and aluminum diff bushings, just because they already did a lot of the work for you with the IRS and all you gotta do with it is CO the biotch and you got the same setup as I do. I paid $400 for the IRS with brakes, shocks and ABS sensors and had to buy the $800 in bushings and then my buddy installed them(who also has a bullitt with an IRS in it...) and now I put coilovers on it and i got a lot invested in it. So look for a built one for about $1k or a stock one for about $400.

BTW, I see you have a WTT ad on SVTP for an 01 IRS...bad idea. Go for the 03/04 IRS as its built better to start with.

Im ecstatic to get a ride in this damn car and see what the difference on our cars with the IRS and SRA is all about.

^You think youre excited...TRY WHAT IM GOING THROUGH RIGHT NOW JUST WAITING TO DRIVE THE FUGGER!!! Im going from a stock SRA with sh!tty shocks and eibach springs to a fully built IRS with complete solid bushings and coilovers...this is going to be interesting...to say the least

EDIT - ^No homo on what I wrote above....

So an update...everything came in yesterday morning from MM at 8:28AM and due to my buddy having to work past shop hours he wasnt able to get to my car til tonight and he leaves sometime tomorrow afternoon/evening for virgina beach for the MCA nationals. So...the IRS with FR500 catback is gonna be in, but I'll be rolling around with stock location springs up front for the time being. Not ideal, but I'm so pumped to finally get the IRS and new catback put on! Its gonna be odd with the front suspension riding rougher than the rear. LOL

BTW, you read that post wrong on svt. It says what year mine is.....but good lookin out I need to hit up aereon (sp?) cuz I need to ride in an IRS car. I feel left out in the dark

I PM'd him like last thursday to ask him how he liked his coilover setup again cus i forgot what he said, but he hasnt been on in like a month.

But I would sure hope that if you said you had a bullitt that the guy on the other end of the computer would know what year a bullitt was made...
