    Second Skinned the doors. I had a few sheets left so I just did the holes on the front doors and some on the inside to reduce vibrations. Pretty noticeable road noise difference.

    Sunday I installed Ripp mods Brat box, tomorrow I am installing new energy suspension polyurethane motor mount bushings, and currently in the mail are the following:

    NX Wet kit w/ NOS bottle, hF valve, NOS bottle pressure gauge and WOT switch
    Zex duel blue led purge kits
    Tsunami battery terminals and wire to get ready for "big 3" install
    maganaflow resonator
    cherry bomb glasspack to replace cat in exhaust
    Foglight covers (making a custom setup to filter air to my cai filter, but with an adaptor to cover it for when it rains)

    So I have a busy few weeks ahead of me :)

    Got new axles and oil change. Axles seem to have only cured my vibrations after lowering by 85% (v6). Was hoping for a 100 or 95 at the least. But atleast it feels safe to drive now, before it felt like tooth picks that were bound to snap at any moment and I could hear the vibration/wobble. Although its too soon to tell, I think it cured the high pitch scrunch I use to hear starting the car, and when making tight low speed turns.

    Quick question, I think my drivers side lower control arm might have a busted bushing, its greasy around the outside. Is it possible it could be responsible for the last lil bit of vibration I'm getting? Always felt it more on the drivers side anyway.

    Also what about motor mounts, cause at one point I use to hear something like metal rocking on metal. So I put my ear to the pass fender where I heard the sound. Then i popped the hood, and pushed on the motor mount near the coolant reservoir, and it recreated the sound. That was a few months back, slipped my mind til now

    Installed a K&N on my moms van and on my dads car

    Then got these in



    Cant wait to put these suckers in. Infinity Reference, The tweeters inside have a +2 decibel switch which is quite nice.

    The other box is a GPS mount for my phone. It is really cool puts my phone in a car mode which allows me do do footprints and a few other neat features.

    I can't tell much of a difference when I hit the dB switch on my Reference 6 1/2's up front. They sound great though! I'm sure those 6 x9's would be awesome.
