Those look real nice. If they run as good as they look I will need to get me a set. I'm going to do the M42 set and hard wire mine since I would never go back to a OEM coil and would want to hide the bulky wiring harness anyways. Looking good | | | 09-14-2010, 04:12 AM | #652 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Auburn, WA Posts: 1,814 | Quote: Originally Posted by xxxJohnBoyxxx Jean. Those look real nice.

If you like DIY stuff it's a $130 buck or so mod. I did mine for under 30 bucks.... __________________ No more ti. | | | 09-22-2010, 03:07 AM | #659 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Florida Posts: 2,525 | JB racing lightweight flywheel. Kept the stock clutch as I'm not going with any power increase and the weight is similar to the m5 setup. IE rear camber/toe kit installed and re-aligned. Rear alignment is now -2 degrees of camber, and .05 toe in. Total toe of .11degrees. 0 thrust angle. My rear alignment used to have a huge thrust angle. Installed front brake ducts and cooling hose back to the calipers. Brake swap and rim/wheel change coming soon. | | | 09-22-2010, 04:08 AM | #660 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: norcal - 94590 Posts: 3,186 | __________________ James 95 active w/leather interior and sport interior conversion, Vaders, full M-Tech exterior conversion.
