2008 6MT Type S - currently at 120,122. I had the timing belt work done (Aisin) 500 miles ago. Also did the serpentine belt (Gates) and plugs (NGK) also since I am on Tein Flex Z's I had new OEM front lower ball joints replaced honestly 50 miles ago. I'm really into taking care of this car, as it is my garage queen lol and driven rarely.

My question...what next? I have new OEM lower control arm compliance bushings, but I'm having a hell of a time finding a place to do that job. I can dabble a bit with a wrench, but that's not something I'm willing to take on and the dealer quoted me $600'ish to do so. So I may just sell them if anyone is interested (new OEM still in the bags)

I guess my question is...what next? I've been leaning towards new OEM front upper control arms, or new OEM lower control arms. Being on the Teins, with a modest drop I'd like to make sure the suspension is top notch. Or do I get the Progressive sway bar? Valve cover gaskets? Purge valve? I have 2 bulbs out around the navi screen that does bug me lol but not a huge deal at the moment. I also want to replace the shift knob with a 4gen one - thanks @truonghthe for the heads up! I've also thought about the delay valve delete on the slave cylinder.

So that's the reason for the post...what (if anything) would you do next?

 

Motor mounts, trans mounts and LCA, trust me you will love your car even more afterward. I replace almost everything at the front end suspension with the exception of the upper control arm, the car is tight right now, I would say it even better than my other Type S.
