The way out is through
Default

I talked to Matt and Greg at the race shop. I'm gonna bolt enough of the suspension bits back together to (hopefully) get it down to them tomorrow. We'll put it on the lift and inspect everything and weld up/reinforce whatever needs to be done. I'm pretty sure a minor touch-up is all that's necessary, but I'm gonna have the pros handle it.

However, to get the car rolling again enough to get it on the trailer and down to Moundhouse, I could really use a spare tire... with a donut on there, I won't have to pull the swaybar, re-attach the brakes, etc... I can just slap it on there and roll it up on the trailer. But to get a full size tire to fit, I'm basically going to have to spend a couple of hours to rebuild a bunch of stuff that will just have to all come back off as soon as the car gets to the shop. Anyone have a 5x114.3 STi donut they can loan me for a few days? My spare is 5x100 from my old hubs. On second thought, maybe the SVX's spare will fit... I'm gonna go try that first.
