    Suspension progress update

    Just a quick update for those of you have been following it, I broke down and went to the dealership to order the strut mounts instead of waiting god knows how long to get the MS ones from cork sport (they don't even have an eta from japan). Got raped though, $159 for OE compared with $130 + ship for MS. So after god knows how long, my new suspension looks like it will be going in a week from today (next wednesday). *crosses fingers*

    i have an order for the MS struts with CS as well. I'm down there every other week. I asked Derrick about the shipment and he said "june 6th". We'll see what's up, I'll keep you posted.

        if it's june 6th i'm gonna be pissed. . . I e-mailed him last week and he said no eta, and I already paid the dealership, I just hope he cancelled my order, I didn't get a reply from the e-mail I sent.

            I have been contemplating the ms mounts, but the only thing that holds me back is that we can use the AWR front and rear mounts in our cars.
            I do need that passenger mount though. I remeber talking to Derrick and he said that he can order the mounts individually.

            I already have the rear upper mspeed mounts and the mspeed shocks. I just need a stiffer passenger mount to fight the damn wheel hop and keep the engine stable. I am getting a lot of movement because of that mount and it is apparent every time I start off or shift gears.

            Good luck with your suspension install 95proleila

              Finally got this **** in, pics coming soon (don't have a digi, so I have to get em developed). I'm very happy with the setup. One thing: getting a creaking/groaning noise from the rear end, I'm assuming it's just because everything is new, but just thought I'd make sure, as always, your help is appreciated!

                  Check your rear sway bar end links. I have a creak coming from my passenger rear that I have to check out when I get home. It's frigin annoying.

                    yeah, turns out my mechanic ghetto rigged the rear sway bar and didn't tell me (didn't want me to worry about it) they got the end links in today and I'm dropping it off tonight. That and my damn squaky clutch!
