Haha thanks man It's going to be crazy getting all this stuff put in.. I'm going to do one part at a time so I can feel the difference of everything. Shocks/springs, take it for a drive... lca's, take it for a drive. It'll be pretty cool to feel the car get better and better.

I'd think Winter in WI is the best time to be installing parts... get a space heater and start getting to work in the garage. Not like you can do anything else right now ... then again maybe I'm missing something (no garage, etc) but after 2 years in Buffalo, I'd say I have a good idea

Nice! Hopefully I'll have a pile like that waiting to go on next year! Looking to do full exhaust, O.E. wheels and tires, some Konis with lowering springs, and maybe a cam if my bonus and tax return are big. Mines sitting in a storage shed so no working on it til spring rolls around
