updates (exhaust, suspention, 8.8") May 08, 2006, 09:47:44 PM Here are some pictures I took this afternoon of what I have got done so far. Full 3" exhaust (ATR catback, 3" dp) , 8.8" (that i did a quick sand/rattle can job on :D ), Eibach springs/poly bushings, and CHE upper/lowers. I also threw in a picture of a couple of pieces i grabed from my ruined 7.5". I see that there was a thread about this a couple weeks ago, but saved my pictures until now. That was just the pieces I cought, there are a bunch more laying over the hill after i dumped the that fell out :D Then a picture of the result of the Eibach springs. It appears to have leveled it out, although if you get out a 'tape, it is about 1 1/4 lower out back, and a WHOLLLLE lot tighter!!! :D Needless to say, bends have never been so fun :D Let me know what you all think!Frank M.

It looks good with the 'snowflakes' and I like how you terminated the exhaust tips right at the bumper edge. That's how I have mine on my 87. I hate it when they stick out past the bumper too far. Looks like you're gonna have some fun driving that on those PA backroads. Quote Selected

updates (exhaust, suspention, 8.8") Reply #12 – May 09, 2006, 11:32:50 PM Nice:D Need new tires yet? I can do that with my T-bird but I like to, you know, have treads on my rear tires. Quote Selected
updates (exhaust, suspention, 8.8") Reply #13 – May 10, 2006, 02:23:10 AM no need for tires yet :D I am working on it though!Two of the tires on my cobra r wheels were ruined in a poorly marked construction zone... They will probably end up on the my 88... I have new ideas for the 83 involving a 5 lug upgrade ;) but no, the Cobra wheels were not affevted by the Eibachs. They rubbed in the front on real hard bends involving a nasty bump... Quote Selected
updates (exhaust, suspention, 8.8") Reply #14 – May 10, 2006, 11:34:15 PM My stepdad is going to tear mine up soon. I'm going to have video/photos! I like how your exhaust is. I actually just printed photos of it because mine has to be brought back to the exhaust shop to be fixed, again since they don't know what making the tail pipes come out behind the rear tires means versus before the tires so I'm going to have them run it out the ass...figure they can't fck that up so I'm going to bring them photos for added security!
