> Rear springs on 4th gens are EASY (3rd gens too…). jackstands under frame, unbolt shocks, allow rear to drop, springs practically fall out (i’m oversimplifing, but not too much). BTW, I am the one with the white formula convertible. It was nice to get 5 runs, hope it happens next time as well.

I know they arent difficult…I like to complain haha. Good seeing your post on here lol.

Well tonight for the most part was a success, and alot of fun. I did a few things today before hitting up the track.

- Sanded TB (Was rough to the touch)
- Removed Muffler & Tips (Weld broke so I pulled it down for now)
- Swapped UMI Solid LCAs from my 86’ to the 00’

And tonight I beat my 12.12 best time a total of 8 times. 🙂 I did a best pass of **12.0035 @ 112.58** which I am stoked about! Solid LCA’s looks like it dropped my 60ft down .04 from my best. Still garbage 60fts, and not really happy with 1/4 MPH, but its on the tip of the ice to break 11s. I actually got to run a total of 14 passes tonight which was sweet. One thing I am certain of after tonight is my shift points need raised. All of my best passes tonight were done by manually shifting. It was a test that worked. Leaving it in 3 I ran a best of 12.28 tonight. Riding it out that few more hundred rpms got me to a few 12.0xx passes.

Ill upload the vids most likely tomorrow after work.
