I would say a fender roll is in order... then an alignment to get them set...

fender roll guy I used his name is Miles, he is the organizer for Cars and Coffee and he does great work 210-316-1102

For what? NAPA had the turbo and DP ones, and I special ordered the exhaust manifold ones from Advance. Fastenal was only good for the nuts on the exhaust manifold as it was impossible to find 10.8 nuts at the local auto parts stores and hardware stores.

Hector, you are going to need a roll man and suspension. I didn't realize you went with such a low offset.

Cornholio, you and Missy have a safe trip!

I think the ones I got for the exhuast will work...

I was looking for ones form the turbine housing to the DP.

I have home depot bolts and nuts for the time being, I plan on ordering all the heat treated studs and crap later with the heat shielding and turbo blanket. all of which will install after the welder makes my DP and flange for the inlet.

Slowly but surely it will all come together.

Okay, for the DP go to NAPA, they have nice heat treated ones.

tbks car was a trend setter. It started the SARX herrfrush movement. I am just waiting for what he has planned for the R3.

If Hector mounted the tires on the wheels then he cannot return them... if he didn't he might be able to exchange them for a better offset depends who he bought them from... glad I went with a +35 on mine....

and yeah tbk's PB was sick looking...
