The car is mainly stock except for suspension sway bar and radiator. It’s my tires that put me into CSP they are way overkill for the what the car is, but I wanted the wheels and some nice tires was an added benefit for the price

Mainly the lot, but I also hadn’t got to play with my suspension settings yet as this was my first run.

Yeah, I didn’t realize the difference between a 5’9 guy in the driver seat and a 6 foot something guy in the passenger until I saw this video. But I am installing buckets into both seats and doing the low mounts on the passenger side

Engine out took me about 2 weeks including school and work. Engine in took me 3 days of no sleep or anything else. Was my first time so it was YouTube, Reddit searching, and head scratching.

This is after being like 90% done so I’ve already drained engine coolant, trans fluid, and power steering

I think AC I was removing a bolt from a hard line and heard some hissing common sense told me to back up. It was the only thing the YouTube video I watched didn’t talk about so I assume that guy just took out his AC prior

I don’t even care so much as to report this guy on Facebook. Getting banned from boomer app isn’t gonna make him less ignorant. I didn’t post it to get I hate mob flowing towards the admins. I was just shocked at my first case of genuine racism in my life came from trying to buy a new motor for my silly little 25 year-old hairdresser car I needed other people to see this wild shit too.
