looks good...its gotta be pretty light, I would keep the front sway bar though, i took mine off for a little while and couldn't stand how it drove... it "floated"

what is the abs delete block?

Magnet

iTrader: (36)

hey whats the dash brace? i havent heard of it... is it hard to remove? what does it weigh?

nemss1

ya true but i love the kickass monsoon system haha. yes our cars do sound kickass! sometimes the music is off for that reason haha

the dash brace is the steel bracing behind the dash that also supports the passenger airbag w/bracket. dash has to come off to remove it. its about 7lbs

ya mine floats w/o the front sway bar. i dont mind it tho. i only use the car as an occasional fair weather weekend car

the ABS delete block is made by billingsley and is a simple bolt-on. remove all the ABS crap and simply bolt on the block in its place. it keeps the stock routing of the stock brake lines

6 rib, 52.5 belt. i removed the pump, bracket, idler and all the lines and plugged the holes in the rack with bolts. belt runs over tensioner, under waterpump, over alternator pulley, crank pulley, then back to tensioner

type in P/S steering delete with pics in the search and there r a couple of pics
