Wow, I love mine too, but I thought that the $12 I paid on eBay was too high. Guess I got a good deal. ;-) Best mod? Suspension bracing (X-Brace, Strut Brace). -p

Generally favorable results but definitely not a universal success. And long term as these things make their way through the used parts market, there will be inevitable support issues and maintenance fiascos. Most upgrades aren't time bombs. lets hope this one isn't either. Its the one upgrade off the top of my head that I think every owner should remove on the sale of the vehicle.

I'll probably get pelted for this, but UUC SS (poor design, rattles, slowly grinds away at your carrier), followed shortly after UUC clutch stop which didn't hit the mark if you know what I mean.
