thanks! here is a few






anyways back to my boring build. Decided to take it out to get aligned since i cant even begin to explain how bad it was.



after a while of hunting i finally found a place with a rack the car could get on to







i was pretty bummed out after seeing the results, i told him just to bring the toe to spec so i could determine if anything is going on with the suspension. its pretty clear that something is wrong haha. if anyone who knows more about the suspension in these cars who has any idea what could lead to this please give me some input

after that my day started going down hill, while following a buddy of mine to his place my radiator fan decided to stop working (great timing since i was in bumper to bumper traffic).




it took me a little too long to actually get to a spot i could pull over so my expansion tank decided to pee out some fluid. I let it cool off and put some water in it, but not much further down the road it started getting hot again. I have a feeling that the expansion tank needs replacing, the cap doesn't seat now causing it to push out fluid when the system is under pressure.

after i got to my buddies house we decided to throw these on for fun



while the wheels where off i noticed this, at least something on the car is done properly




i went ahead and took them out because... well, why not haha. though i ended up putting 2 back in because the fender was resting on the tire lol.



good results in my opinion




buddy gave me these at me for a good price



then when all was good and i was about to leave, the cars ass settled it self way too low, the front wheels got shaky at speed (i assume because the spacers werent hub centric) and i was still worried about the cooling issue. since he lives about 20 miles away from me i decided to play it safe and get it towed home to work out the bugs



may have had an issue getting off the flat bed...



fixed that up real quick lol

perfect!





now to figure out how to make this fitment work. considering getting new 5mm spacers that are hub centric, as well as some 82mm bulletnose wheels studs. im hoping to start having some cool updates soon, i know its nothing too interesting so far, but dont worry, cool things to come

I love the I don't give a shit attitude on this one... My kind of build keep it up this thing has potential

for how jank and low this car is that alignment sheet isn't all that bad.

check your lower control arm bushing in the front probably your driver side.
