Wrench day = SUCCESS. Save for Atilla's rear, I think we did good work. My car's stiff as **** now but it'll settle in. Until we can put those adjusters in, I won't get too cray-cray

lol - glad everything went well after i left. Sorry i had to bail early but i did make it in time to pick up Jess from the airport.


Glad the suspension is working out for the both of you guys.

Ryan -lemme know if you need/want to tweak your suspension some more this coming weekend. I might be free to finish up my suspension n' possibly head out to get an alignment at VIP. My rears shouldn't take too long.

btw, i still hate your car...

Kevin: Don't ever let someone from mazda torque your lugnuts over 150lbs ever again. My ankle still hurts.
