[QUOTE="Cpotts13, post: 1076901, member: 16753"] Alright I have been lazy lately in updating this thread but lets start. After I upgraded the sway bars there wasnt much done performance wise for ahwhile, in early November my alternator went bad, like catastrophically bad, it was whinning and shooting sparks... I went ahead and replaced it with a new pi performance 130 amp alternator and I also replaced the water pump, it was loose and didnt have much life left in it. After that my next big thing was a set of H&R super sport springs, i was freaking tired of the truck like stance the frpp gave my car and instead of messing around with cutting them i went ahead and got better ones. new stance [IMG]http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/u364/codeep/2012-12-05_12-42-40_114.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/u364/codeep/2012-12-05_12-42-21_413.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1064.photobucket.com/albums/u364/codeep/2012-12-05_12-42-11_400.jpg[/IMG] finally i have it as low as i want it to be. After the spings I was having the infamous "cobra clunk" ( i know its not a cobra but the brakes are) and come to find out that there was supposed to be anti rattle clips on the pads, i didnt know that cause when i bought them there wasnt any on there lol.. anyways a cheap 10 dollar fix and my car feels more solid then it ever has. yesterday I was washing my car and was almost done, went to dry my rims of and found this..

Called up American muscle, because they have a one year warranty and they were covered.

That brings us up to date so far, hopefully for Christmas i will be getting new front tires, nito nt555's.
