[QUOTE="scottydsntknow, post: 16376610, member: 79824"] Been almost another whole year. Passed 3rd inspection in total last week. Hopefully going to be here awhile. Love it here. Going on a cruise to Cadiz Sierra on Sunday with the local club and then taking the car down for about a month or as long as it takes to install a whole Maximum Motorsports front setup and finally get the last few FTBR pieces installed in the IRS. That would be their tie rods and correct front diff aluminum bushings, also some D spec shocks and Steeda Sport springs, no isolators and it doesn't have them now and is silent so gonna keep it that way. Front is getting a MM K member, forward offset A arms with Delrin, coilovers, swaybar relocation, On3 oil filter relocation, MM steering arm, MM bumpsteer, and MM #325 coilovers with D specs up front. Then I will drive the hell out of it, do some minor tracking in Jerez and just enjoy it. If I get my orders extended out another 4 years I'm going to see about getting a hood shipped out here in a container and then get it painted. Maybe a body kit too. Paint is stupid cheap here like retarded cheap. A good paintjob is 800 euros and a REAL good one is like 1200 euros... exchange is .90 euro to $1 so you do the math. Cost of living here in Southern Spain is crazy, as an E6 living overseas with all the allowances I make more than an established Spanish lawyer and then pay probably half the taxes they do. Final plan with this car once all the cosmetics are done is going to be rear IRS coilovers and Konis with springs to match and actually be able to track it properly at the circuit here. I was going to build an engine on the side but this JY Continental engine has had the everliving snot beat out of it since I've been here and its just taking it. Never misses a beat, hardly uses any oil and pulls HARD to redline. [/QUOTE]
