the bad,
it has 3.42 gears so down low it does not drive as smooth as it could with some 4.10 or lower gears.(i do have 4.10s brand new in the box,that will be sold with the price of the car)

all was good in the suspension with the prokit,but i wanted it lower so i cut the springs a little and it drove good,then i wanted it lower so i cut them some more.with me driving it and no one else in the car it drives fine but turning sharp right it makes a bumping noise.with a passenger in the car it will make the noise when it hits a bump or a shift in the road.i believe it is because its so low that its bottoming out,reason being with the prokit i had no problems with passengers what so ever.

no a/c in the car,i bought the car and it was not working so i removed the under hood stuff,condensor,lines,etc.reason i removed them is because its not my daily driver and to make room for the cris1313 ram air.i do have the original a/c parts to give the new owner

it is throwing a ses light,i took it to autozone and its one code po154.after some research on tech,it appears to be the o2sensor on the passenger side.car runs fine but probly would run better in partial throttle with new o2 sensor.i will fix it if i have time,probly not th
