No audio updates just yet, but I just got eibach coilovers to compensate for saggy suspension when I go wall. I just got a garage too, so I can now do some work :) Just need to pick up new struts and new strut mounts and suspension will be ready to go!!!

I removed the lip kit and put away summer wheels and tires into storage. Put the stock swirlies back on :( car looks boring again

On an audio note though, I should have my 10-1/0 battery terminals here any day now :nuts:

Also I sent out my DC 12" basket to get powdercoated so I can build a system for my girlfriend. Here is the result of a little powder, looks sexy. I'll be using it in the meanwhile. Can't wait to have bass back :twirl:

I'm not dead, I'm just fixing stupid shit.

I've been having serious car problems lately (it IS a ford :P)

Long story short, this car needed a trans swap because torque converter was shit and after atf change the car would stall on half throttle :/ I took the good automatic out of my project car (which I planned on doing anyway for a 5-speed swap) and I had the help of a good friend to remove both transmissions and put the good one into my daily. We also replaced cv shafts, motor mounts, and transmission torque mounts.... needless today, the car runs SO much better after all that much needed work.... 180k miles and still going strong :)

On an audio note, one of my friends on SMD blew up their Jeep Grand Cherokee engine. He decided that he is just going to fix it and sell it for a more reliable and better mpg vehicle. I owed me money, so he gave me my sundown saz-1500d v2 amp and his Fi Q 15 :nuts::nuts::nuts: I have everything I need EXCEPT A BOX... seeing that my garage is currently taken up by a POS zx2 on jackstands, no interior, and no transmission, I don't see myself build a box HERE anytime soon :(

good news is that I have a friend who just blew up his zx2 transmission and he is going to scrap it. Before he scraps it, I am going to grab the charcoal interior from it to put into the project car... but not after sound deadening the living shit out of the interior :)
