He said that he always checks them to make sure they're flat and has never had a return or refund requested before -- but he didn't hesitate to offer a warranty refund or replacement, so kudos to Roger for being an alright kinda guy. It was just minutes after I sent the message via eBay that he got back to me.

I can't tell you how many times I've come within striking distance of that purchase decision only to spend time looking at dyno charts... I don't often ask the engine to spin faster than 4,000 RPM and nothing on the market really surpasses the keg until then, while nothing on the market gets even close to the keg below 3200. Kinda sucks because the kid in me wants the cool looking manifold just for the looks of it.

Replaced radiator,changed the oil(royal purple),replaced the dome light with a 36 led panel in white (super bright).then I ordered some things, Found my switches for my map light are done, so I ordered a new wire harness with switches. Also ordered new fog light lenses from a place near my house ,and led bulbs from jdm astar through amazon (they seem to have good reviews). Then I figured while I was at it I'd upgrade my lows to hid so I ordered those as well.When I was looking at the leds I found a nice led third brake light. Going to spend a few hours installing everything in a week or so.

Bled the brakes. The power bleeder did not complain that its legs got tired.

Fluid checks, drain the catch-can, and fitted new wiper blades.
Hit the grill retainer bolts with some penetrent, as it needs removing in the not too distant future, for a paint job (it's cracked and needs replacing).

I will try to get an audio sample if I can get a helper. I'll post on this thread when I do.

over the weekend i installed a 5 inch bds long arm lift kit complete with fox shocks, new leaf springs and all brackets needed. everything went together great. instructions were great. i would recommend bds to anyone. install took the better part of the day...roughly 9 hours 10 hours if you count me going over everything to make sure it was tight.
unfortunately i didnt think to take pictures during the install. finished product in my sig though.
