Very interested in driving impressions, but since you are having so much done to the car at once, it'll be hard to pinpoint the difference made by the arms.
SuperSkyline89 will be the guy to listen to. You are right I am changing up my suspension so much I won't be able to comment. I am adding 3 different UB braces, switched to new YCW coilovers with control plates, switched from stock sized wheels/tires to 18x10 wheels and tires will be around 295/30, new spherical rear trailing, same for adj rear control arms. I already had full set of poly bushings, subframe kits, Eibach sways. And I will be taking it to a suspension shop to have it all dialed in with more track friendly settings, I was running street settings before.

They are sweet.
As if I haven't bought enough stuff lately found a PTP underhood liner to go along with the PTP firewall blanket.
After looking at my PayPal transaction history I should have stayed with that plan. Not really. Having too much fun. This project is perfect example of why you need a budget though.

There is no point in that, it contains more heat in the engine bay with that.
It is just for looks.
Not worried about raising temps by putting in a replacement hood liner.

Thanks
HPA drilled and tapped ready for setup.
I though they already sell it drilled and ready for water meth!
No. It comes with a single port. The v2 version (one I have) added the flat cast areas to accomodate jets on the runners if you want to add them. Aquamist has these nice little jet holders so it makes for a clean easy job. I bought this from a forum memeber who purchased but never installed it. If you order it from HPA they will customize it for direct inject.
