Lunch X2..

Fridays are typically "Good (LUNCH) Fridays" at work. Ray's cafe's huge prime rib plate lunches were the call. After that, hooked up with some friends that didn't have such a huge lunch, and got sushi at Mitch's. Stuffed, but HAPPY..!



Bits of progress..

First off, I keep forgetting to bring my digital cam with me. My phone pics suck. The Corolla got some updates -- SilkRoad front coilovers, Battle Version RCA and suspension rods, Craftz 6kg  rear springs, and the TRD rear shocks that Brandon H. previously had on the car.. The SilkRoad coilover setup wasn't able to achieve the right ride height, and had to be modified. They welded a threaded sleeve to a factory spindle to accept their threaded body cartridge. There was interference btw. the stock spindle and the cartridge, so I cut the spindle and sleeve down for clearance, and had the sleeve re-welded. Stuck in my old Sparco Corsa seat with FG rails. Next up: japaneezu bumpers and some rust repair..
