finally got the 500 brake kit (with compensator delete) installed inside those pretty, pretty monzas. also installed new upper and lower a-arms (ended up being more economical than the parts and labor to replace ball joints and bushings...) and progressive springs. the car sits a bit lower, without being stupid. everything about it feels more planted and responsive. SO excited for the weekend...
so, if anyone needs some a-arms, they are yours for shipping plus let's say another ten for my time. but i assure you, the attached bushings and ball joints are nothing to write home about.
big brakes, new suspension
