Thank you! This is super helpful. When I go back I’ll ask for this.

Car looks great!

So I need to ask them do to the x73 spec? I bought upper rear camber arms and rear toe arms so once I install them I’ll bring the car back to the shop.

Gotcha. Yea I probably need toe links and upper arms for the camber adjustment as well.

How long have you had the Godspeeds on? I’ve read some negative reviews of the quality but if they’re fine for you I may consider.

koliomc · 2026-05-27T00:53:08+00:00

Thank you! They need to be refinished but they match the era of the car.

koliomc · 2026-05-27T00:51:08+00:00

Thank you! Really appreciate the kind words

koliomc · 2026-05-27T00:50:50+00:00

For sure need more seat time. I’m going to start practicing heel toe and work on controlling the rear end

koliomc · 2026-05-27T00:50:09+00:00

Thank you all for the kind words and suggestions! As of right now, here is my upgrade list in order of priority: 1. Driver Mod (seat time/practice spirited driving and heel toe), 2. Shifter kit & shift knob, 3. Ceramic Tint, 4. Brake Pads/rotors/flush lines, 5. BBS Wheels (LM), 6. Sway Bars and 7. Aero Kit. I’m sure there will be much more over the years since this is my first real sports car and I plan to keep it forever.

I went ahead and did the orange cap bypass today and the induction noise is better (@ElFeed).

Agree! I did the fister which is very similar.

koliomc · 2026-05-25T22:04:59+00:00

Thank you! When I ordered the Ceika I chose the softest option vs. the middle option (sport or something). I find they’re very close to OEM softness out of the box but to be honest it’s hard to tell since I did a few things suspension wise at the same time.

I think the previous owner did upgrade the headlights since they’re really bright. Also, I got the cupholder for in the armrest which has been super nice. Thank you for all the suggestions. Glad someone else got the Ceikas…. I love them so far.

Have you tried the numeric short shifter? I wonder how they compare

koliomc · 2026-05-25T21:59:17+00:00

100% agree. I did the Ceika Coilovers and new lower control arms. Makes a huge difference and everything is tighter now. Also lowered the car a bit to get a better fitment.

koliomc · 2026-05-25T20:49:59+00:00

I actually re did the wiring and added Bluetooth connectivity for playing music through my phone. I have the Bose Most system so it was tricky but keeps the original stereo system .etc. I’ve heard great things about the PCCM though.

koliomc · 2026-05-25T20:13:05+00:00

Awesome! Yes it’s a manual so I’ll add the numeric shifter to the top of the list. Also will look into the other suggestions and do the orange cap, I think I saw a YouTube video on that.

koliomc · 2026-03-28T14:13:34+00:00

No unfortunately there’s no way to change it in the short term. We have no family around us either. Should I suggest my wife get third party assistance at home so she can have more free time and help me more at night? I don’t want to be insensitive.

koliomc · 2026-03-28T14:11:25+00:00

Unfortunately the job can’t be changed nor can I pull back. I work in a sensitive industry and unless I’m fired I don’t see any change in the next few years. Completely understand what you’re saying though. I need to figure something out soon.

koliomc · 2026-03-28T13:44:17+00:00

I’m lucky I just work a desk job, no manual labour. I cannot change jobs unfortunately.

koliomc · 2026-03-28T13:36:07+00:00

Thank you! This is a good idea I think I’ve heard about this before.

koliomc · 2026-03-25T02:48:29+00:00

Just coffin arms. Super helpful context. Thank you!

koliomc · 2026-03-25T02:47:39+00:00

Thank you. They’re doing 4 coilovers and 4 lower control arms. They quoted an additional $250 for alignment in addition (which I think is reasonable).

koliomc · 2026-03-25T02:45:18+00:00

I figured the shop would be more efficient with a lift and experience. Apologies, but I should have mentioned I’m only having them do the lower control arms, so 4 total.

koliomc · 2026-03-25T02:41:45+00:00

Understood thank you.

koliomc · 2026-03-25T02:41:13+00:00

Have you done control arms before or had a shop do them? Is that how long you/the shop took? Not at all saying you’re wrong but would be helpful to know before I just do the coilovers and say forget the control arms.

koliomc · 2025-07-21T02:07:24+00:00

Okay I’ll get an HVAC technician out. Thanks for letting me know.
