Wow...I actually have mods!

Its about time too! I just got done putting on my Powerslots (front and rear), Goodridge lines, Porterfield pads, new brake hardware and painted the calipers. I also took advantage of the car being up on stands, and I installed the Progress rear sway bar. Tomorrow Im planning on doing the STS with the new ES bushings and my Nismo titanium shift ****.

And yes, Ill try to get some pics up...

What is the part number for the Goodridge lines? And is the banjo connector for the front bent a slight bit to avoid hitting the CV boot?

shame shame shame
i posted these pics of the goodridge lines 2 days ago, they do not have those nubs on them, but the lines are more than long enough to not come close to rubbing

I didnt run into any problems at all with the install. It all went smooth. The only problems were with the stock rotors being rusted on and they needed to be knocked off. As far as the SS lines go, I had contacted Goodridge and had a custom set made because nobody seemed to carry the ones for an 02. I may have been wrong, but I came out spending less on them in the long run.

And after the STS today, I still have to put on my DDE's, clear the turn signal, instal my LEDs, a new grille, install my pedals, the AE sills, Tein coilovers with EDFC, and change my incabin microfilter. Thank God its a 3 day weekend!

dayam....i have been 'saving' up since i got my car (in sept. 2004) and i only have about $600 to spend (getting either h-techs or H&Rs on illuminas once i have enough)....i hate paying $340/month for insurance and $2.15/gallon of gas....haha

anyways, good luck on all those mods and definitely post pics once everything is installed! hope you like everything! (the AE pedals and sills are definitely the nicest interior mods you can get for the max...they really give it some flare )
