Changed my oil today, went full synthetic with Mobil 1 High Mileage 5W-30 paired with a fram oil filter. Checked my ball joints and my tie rods. None of which are shot but every now and then I hear a popping sound when backing up while turning. It probably does it when going forward also but I have a cannon for my exhaust so it probably covers the popping sound. Any ideas? Im stumped.
This week I'm going to order some brakes, im trying to figure out how big of brakes I can fit.. 17 X 7.5 +28 and 15mm spacers on the rears

I hate to see your car go, Alex, it was really coming along. Best of luck with the new project though.

Guess it’s a good thing I never got around to getting an RSB shipped to ya. :lawl:

Thanks Chris, me too.. I sorta miss having people turn to look at my car and smile or give me a thumbs up as there are no other 6th gens modded to my extent in my state.. Although you do see a few slightly lowered ones but they're either on cheap chromies or just stock wheels, and nothing else done to it exterior-wise.
I did see an older lady, probably over 60, driving one that was quite low with aftermarket dual exhausts which surprised me and made me lol a bit.. :lawl:

There is this old lady (maybe near 70) who comes into the café I work. She drives an '02 SSM CG2, and we became friends lol.

Put in Eibach RSB, Moog endlinks, replaced distributor O-ring, changed oil and tranny fluid, fixed an exhaust leak, and adjusted my valves.

Pretty productive :coffee:
