SO THE FRONT CONTROL ARM, FORWARD SIDE BUSHINGS ARE STILL NON-SPHERICAL? CUSCO MAKES A PIECE, does it work with the PSRS?

I've got HOURS to put in over the next week and a half. headgames package arrived and looks gooood. the flow #s for such a simple procedure are outstanding, now i can put my motor together this week. Also, the TRE stage 2 trans and rear pumpkin arrived, now just waiting on carbonetic triple disc clutch so i can drop motor in.

bumper/fenders just got painted red. Ive got to do some traveling at the end of this month so my goal is to get engine/trans fully installed before i leave, with the exception of turbokit. ill wrap that up when i return hopefully with an efr internal wg twinscroll turbo..

edit: also, we nose chopped the evo8 bumper and wide bodied it using a nascar splitter (photos of that coming too).

Geoff,

Sent you two e-mails that I need for you to get back to us on ASAP. Also, we'd like to get the turbo kit in prior to your trip.

thanks to everyone who asked - the Robispec Spherical bearing kit is $1200 and he has them in stock. This saved approx 900$ over the JDM route (moonface/cusco) fwiw
