Clean swap, Brewster. Maybe I'll get to see her one of these days, Morgantown ain't that far from MD.

Clean swap, Brewster. Maybe I'll get to see her one of these days, Morgantown ain't that far from MD.

maybe. i'm in charleston now though, about 150 miles south of morgantown. the last two pics were taken in charleston, the rest in motown.

LOL! Guess who's got a new desktop pic? hahahaha

i like that pic too. my favorite is the shell flipped off of the engine.

Oh! Well thats only like 4 hours and 50 mins from where I live. I thought it was a few hours.
EDITED

 

[Brewster]

Oh! Well thats only like 45mins from where I live. Some reason I thought it was a few hours.

you're thinking of charlestown, charleston is in the middle of the state.

Did your clip come with the brake master cylinder heat shield? If it did, I want it. lmk

 

[Loki]

Looks good, it's always nice when swaps get finished and the car is running again

fun project....i expected it to be much more complicated than the 7m, but i was proven otherwise. hopefully brewster will let me hang around to see it finished!

Looking good Brewster. How much are the Megan coilovers and how are they priced compared to other options. I'm tired of my car being in 4 x 4 mode.............lol

 

[Brewster]

they are $950 shipped from 935, if he still has any. best bang for your buck i think and are supposedly the same as apexi or kei office coilovers, but i'm not sure if that's true or not. i've yet to drive on them though, hopefully i'll be done with all this work in a week or two, waiting on parts sucks.
