well valves adjusted, my custom test pipe is in and gaskets installed, m5 cf lip spoiler is on.

the car sounds mean. no codes thrown. car is quiet and runs smooth and strong. except for the ps pump noise. loosed and tightened belt but still their is noise from the pump. any suggestions what it can be. i turned the ps bolt to adjust the valves instead of the crank pulley.

A lower ride height doesn't necessarily translate into better handling. In fact, sometimes it has worse handling because the car does not have enough suspension travel for some corners.

Any updated pics?

Nice, so from the look of it those are gonna mount on the underside of the bumper? Then stick up from the side? Will compliment nicely with the hood. Never seen this before.

lol Carbon Fiber is such an addiction!!!

Next year i am driving down to the states and getting myself a trunk and hood..

Then putting my OEM silver spoiler on THAT.. (haven't seen it done b4)

Dunno why everyone's afraid to drill carbon fiber. Done it 2xs before. And u need to have something on the ass of our CL's... they're just too damn big in the rear.

i know bro it's just a lil addition u could make if u stumbled across a a wack load of COIN...

It is nice to have a wish or two.

SO the $ it's retarted I must agree.

Rims are more than the car costs !!!

Straight BALLLIN THO... If I were u Rajca I'd looking into some DIYs on carbon fibering the window pillars and maybe a few other parts.

DIY is the way to save that $.

I am scared to buy anything carbon fiber because I know when I do the disease is BACK

well did the compression test again. and cyl. 2 have low compression. so most likely the valves are bent. i will still drive the car, then fix the tl and swap in an engine into the cl and build the one i took out of the cl.
