56k miles and daily-driven, how's that for an update? 

Nothing too major is new besides routine maintenance. I am going to put on a set of MR BBS wheels and MR 2-piece front brake rotors this weekend though. Depending on how my current Stoptech pads look I'll consider swapping in my new Girodisc S/S "Orange" pads too. Considering a lightweight driveshaft sometime soon, I just need to find one since AWD Motorsports stopped making them.

Eibach Prokit springs, and it rides very well! These are fantastic daily-driver springs that firm up nicely when you get into a corner; I have no complaints with them. The car currently has 56k miles and they've been installed since 2k miles and the car still rides and handles just as good now as it did 54k miles ago.

Besides for some routine annual maintenance before the Texas All-State cruise this coming weekend, I was able able to add a few fun new upgrades!

MR 2-piece front brake rotors:

MR BBS wheels:

All in all, about 20 pounds of rotational mass shaved off!
