Working on installing a few chassis braces - Pierce 2 point showing up tomorrow along with the front tower brace (more for bling). Also received TB Performance's rear trunk brace and rear torsion beam brace. They are a local group (Temecula, CA) and figured I would give them a try. Hoping to get everything installed by next weekend...
I also have the TB Performance stage three set.
Mine was the first set modified for the FiST.
I am sure you will enjoy how it tightens up your car.

I remember reading on here about that. Danny is a stand up guy and seems to build some nice stuff. I don't have much to compare to though. I will probably be writing up a more detailed review once I get everything installed.

Oh okay, they're chrome. That's pretty much the same as the stock ones. I was going for something along the chrome black color.

I have used Gorilla short open end spline drive nuts for years on many vehicles, low weight, secure, strong, never had an issue on the street or race track. I have always torque my lugs nuts properly, drove a bit, torqued again, and then on track I test them after every session until they no longer need tightened anymore then I check them again in the AM before the first session and after it as needed.

-----------------

I have a closed end set of black aluminum race lug nuts I do not need, my race studs are too long for them;)

Ive read alot of people complain of the colored lugs flake off. You have chrome or colored?

I always use chrome Gorilla lug nuts, I am considering switching to the longer version since I have race studs and plenty of thread material, just a bit more added insurance.

Had a fun little play in traffic with a fost today. I was just driving along minding my business when I noticed a quiet little focus in my mirrors. But then I noticed the inconspicuous yet ominous st badge on the grill. Knowing full well someone with an st badge on their car would be down for some fun I dropped a couple gears and put the boots to it. After a quick but heated exchange on the open road we exchanged nods of approval and went our separate ways. Good times!

Sold notched bumper beam with J'line welded on mounts, 1/2" tube crash sensor/oil filter mount and custom hood catch support rod yesterday and ordered a new bumper and huge IC combo.

Today I sold the 15x9 race wheels as new wheels are coming out soon I like the style better, will be ordering 6 or more Konig Helix wheels soon:)



Note, these 15x9, 4x100 wheels only fit with modified rear camber and lots of fender rolling and not over a standard WW BBK but fit over my DIY BBKs front and rear.

Umm quick question Raam. How much work is needed to get the jline in the car? Im not going to need to cut half my front end am i. Just asking because i have a jline coming from some Rick guy and just making sure my car wont have to be out of commission for longer than a few hours to a day if i were to be also installing a new turbo to go with it.

Thanks
