And everyone is always saying about ground clearance. Since you already bought the adjustable CAs then get the drop brackets. If you're not doing huge rock climbs, the drop brackets will suit you

Took it out shooting in the desert and while messing around(Drifting/doughnuts) my rigged up tail pipe fell off. Now I've got a project to do.

Changed the valve cover gasket. Used a Victor Reinz. First time doing this. Feel like it was a job well done. Should take care of the oil leak that probably persisted for years with the PO. Also changed both CCV elbows and associated hoses. (Note: CCV elbow grommets from Taiwan are of higher quality than those made in China). And changed the intake air temp sensor.
