I did my springs, Henry's springs, Helped Jeff Q with his(even though his axle fell out, what a pain) So if the GE is anything like the GD as in the axle loving to fall out, its not that hard. And I can show you some places where you'll feel the difference from your stock springs and ur new ones like I35 South around the Dallas North Tollway exit, there's these bumps on the highway, if you go fast enough you'll feel like you're flying. One of those is on a turn, that's the one you should go about 70mph on lol. Try with stock springs, and then when you get ur new ones, try it again and go faster lol.

Anyway so yea for anyone interested

Kinda cool Adam. For now, I don't need to stare at your face on those videos lol. Hope your transition goes well to Japan. Check back when you can.

Also for the North Texas Fit guys, there's a meet at Cobb Tuning on the 24th of March. Just spreading the word.

It might be worth going to this just to check out that BRZ. The parking seems kind of tight though.

You can park on the street. The parking lot itself is not that large.

Lol yea I did my suspension, not knowing how to do it to begin with, and both axles came out and my drivers side ABS cable ripped, so going on a year with that ripped ABS cable I did it. I was freaking out when I couldn't get the shock back up and Honda didn't know what I was talking about and then the guys working at the DIY shop helped me out and I got it fixed. It sucked cause I had to use zip ties to tighten back the passenger side boot because the guy told me to take the metal thing off. I also did JDM_Fit's as well.
Whats up Daniel! El Paso kinda sucks, it would probably be better if my car was here. :/ Ugh another week to wait. Yvette is bringing it over here so she can save money on gas and so I have something to play in. I am going to take pics in the mountains.

"Dad, what are you doing? It's shark week!"

Isn't All Team Bash on May 6th? I was thinking of going down there one last time before summer, just not sure which big event to attend.

Cool, I'll probably see you there on Sunday, I probably won't be showing though, I've felt that my Fit seems to be lacking so much recently lol.

I think I'll be going to State of Stance/Tunerlife in Houston instead of Team Bash, there's a few other fun things happening there that weekend too, so that trip would be more worth it for me.

I HIGHLY advise not to go to Tunerlife. Those guys ran RPM here in Dallas and was horrible. Organization was poor. Judges were random non car people. We were given plaques and promised trophies in the mail. No one received a cash prize. Judges were also drunk and 2 hours late for announcements. Lots of promises, no return. Don't get screwed over!
