I wanted to this fall, it's just a busy time for family stuff. 6 birthdays, anniversary, and holidays It's on my list for spring

I always hate that long wait for March to come around to get back out on track. Nothing but frigid cold, and lameness.

Just pass time by buying and installing car parts.

What if I just buy but never install? ?

I'm guilty of that. I've got a PRL dog bone, HEL oil cooler, Spoon Collars, AP/Essex 6 piston brake kit, Dream Stainless Lines, and very soon the EVS lower ball joints.

When I was in my 20's I couldn't wait to tear open packages and spend my evenings installing parts. Now I just glance at the packages and walk away.

At least some of the boxes are nice to look at ?

I just saw that the Spoon HQ and TypeOne shop will be closed while I am there. Boo! How am I supposed to get my Spoon reservoir cover?!

Why are they closed?

It's a national holiday in Japan. It's one of the reasons I am going a day earlier than necessary so I can shop and explore outside of work. Was hoping to pick up some tax and shipping free Spoon parts ?

I just picked up a set of the EVS tuning lower ball joints to see if I can stretch to -3 degrees of camber. Think it would help tremendously at my local track. I doubt they'll arrive in time for this weekend though.

I have hardrace lbj and you seen how much camber I have up front.

this is a great guide to the ball joint removal https://www.civicxi.com/forum/threads/stock-front-camber-and-tire-wear-on-track.52107/post-865794

With the hardrace I was able to get without lowering ~-3.4, and while lowered, one side was -4.1, but ended up with ~-3.7 on each side after alignment. May end up trying to get to around -3 or so as it's daily driven
