Talking Mods by Akkurat on 8/23

Monday can't come quick enough!

What I'm having done:

1) JIC suspension (medium)

2) B&M short shift kit (undercar)

3) engine protection plate

4) aluminum pedals by Ruf

Looking forward to meeting Alex, George and the rest of the gang at Akkurat...

I just did the same four mods two weekends ago at Speed Gallery in Los Angeles. Trust me you are going to love how your car drives after those mods. The JIC suspension on medium stiffness of the shock drives like you are on rails.

Yea Ed, it was great meeting you. Hope you didn't get stuck in too much traffic going home.

What a difference with suspension, huh? Looks and performance.
