    Ok so I was having major rubbing issues in the rear due to the 195/50/15 tires, so I swapped them out for these bad boys

    Achilles Economist 165/45/15



    which led to this



    no more rubbing! I've never been a big fan of camber, so in the rear, the camber is only a few degrees.

    So then I picked up this used Momo Monte Carlo off ebay for $95 shipped. probably not the best deal but whatever



    Now, the clutch has been sticking on me in the past few weeks, causing the car to stick in gear eventually causing me to stall. not fun.

    after some snooping, I found out that the cause was a blown Clutch slave cylinder. Picked a new one up at Advance Auto with a limited lifetime warranty for $18.

    swapped it out within 45 minutes or so

    here's the old vs. new



    So that's all I have for you guys right now, I have some packages coming in the mail soon, so stay tuned!

    hm, I'm not sure. I've only had it on for about a week or two.
    I wash my car fairly frequently though, and take off the hood bra when I do, so I clean both the car and the bra at the same time. thanks for looking out though!

    Don't worry, it'll be on the ground soon
    I have some plans in the works to make the front end super low and not scrape
    Also probably looking at getting 165/45/15s for the rear to match the front

    So I picked up a hood bra and adjusted the front ride height a bit so I wouldn't be scraping on literally everything
    I'm also battling with some rubbing issues in the rear so I have to get that sorted out too.
    Here are some pics!


















    I have some more stuff coming soon so stay tuned!

    Lol I've always been a fan, so I had to jump on them.
    I'm afraid that I'm the bearer of bad news when I say the the Rated-R's were sold a few months back.
