Bilstein struts: I did finally get a confirmation for a front
strut number from Bilstein.
This strut number fits the G/H/J body cars, 1987 and newer. It is what
the
folks at Bilstein classify as a heavy duty strut. It can be purchased
through
AutoZone also. The part number is V32-8500. AutoZone sells them for
96.00
each, or somewhat close to that figure. Bilstein themselves quoted
me 120.00
each. Unfortunately they do not make one for the rear!
Thanks to Steve Menegon
No Spike boost controller thanks to Dempsey Bowling
Add a manual transmission drain plug. Great idea, and outstanding how-to information and pictures were once available on Joe O'Conner's site.Way to go Joe O'Conner! I did this mod on my car, and have to say it's a great idea. I can check and change my transmission fluid in a few minutes, without having to reseal the many layers of plates on the end cover. Anyone knowing where to find this site these days, please email me!
Replace the trouble-prone factory turbo oil and coolant line setup!
Buy them and bolt them on: Lyle
Scott Reid will sell you a set, delivered to your door for about 100 bucks
These braided SS lines are awesome; I have his early set, and love
them. The new version is even better. You really can't beat this mod, and
it should be a no-brainer upgrade when removing the turbo for any reason.
