Thanks guys! I'll try to get some more videos. My BIC end links came in last week. Between work and classes, I haven't had time to put them on and put the ST swaybars to use yet. It already sways pretty badly on the highway as it is. I wanna finish hooking up my EBC and crank up the boost and tune more. Then I'll take more video.

yea it runs but it doesn't run. It overheats after driving it. And it's apparently leaking coolant from somewhere on the exhaust side. Then the fan controller got messed up. Seems like it's short circuited to stay on all the time even if it's cold. I'll need a new fan tstat. Oil psi gauge just stopped working.

^^^ I figured since you want to buy them.....they would be for you..LOL. I am tired of telling emp to keep his car......so if he wants to sell it ...so be it. Who knows.....he might be trying to acquire an mk4. Either way.....do what makes you happy.

Update?

So all the endlinks are hooked up to the ST swaybars now. Been working on doing inner and outer tie rods. They, like everything else underneath the car is rusted solid. Ordered all the tie rods from rock auto. Had to cut the old outer tie rod off to get the hub off because the cotter pin was rusted in there. had to hammer it out. So both the outer tie rods are off now. Just need to buy the inner tie rod tool and go at them. Then I can take it for an alignment. Kinda forgot to take some before pics. I'm extremely sad to see someone part out their car but happy I got the parts I wanted most! :)

Touched up the front bumper. Nothing great, but better than looking at a black bumper with chipped so you can see the yellowness of the actual bumper. bleh!

Finally got those huge eggs dealt with and bought some Bridgestone Potenza Pole Positions for the front. Have them on my sisters 87T and love them!

As of right now, no. It starts up and runs but Im in the middle of replacing the inner and outer tie rods and rack boot. So I have no steering but I took it off the insurance to save a few bucks during the winter months cause I'm probably not going to drive it anyway cause heat isn't hooked up.
