Ha, awesome. I did notice how stiff your suspension looked.
Nope, just notchy.

damn my used low mile transmission was tight and notchy. It was from a jdm clip with low miles, but I'm sure it sat dry for a long time. Seems to be loosening up, but it really felt pissed at first. I didn't know it took that long for the fluid to resoak the syncros or whatever the hell is going on. Maybe the new clutch was dragging slightly at first, but it doesn't now.
totally forgot to post useless alignment numbers:
LF camber: -2.8
FR camber: -2.7
LF Caster: 6.7 (ohhhhyea)
RF Caster: 6.9 (ohhhhyea)
toe: 0
LR camber: -2.4 (lolz)
RR camber: -3.2 (lolz)
toe: 0
With this information and what I've seen during the subframe install, it's proven that there IS a length difference between 92-93 and 94+ rear upper control arms, and the 2G arms are in fact a bit longer and why I was able to get 2G cars back in spec when lowered somewhat while my 1G ran out of adjustment with any lowering. Not like it matters since everyone has adjustables, but it was worth it to find out.
Good info tho
I printed 2 of the brackets, melted the support wax off of them, abraded the bonding surfaces, used a Sharpie to "paint" the bracket where it might just barely be visible through the plate, then epoxied it into place using shims and calipers to confirm proper positioning in the slot. The hazard switch fit tightly into the bracket by design. If the hazard switch ever has to come off for any reason, it will not be fun.
Finally got my stealth back from paint. Had to use my old 1g vr4 bumper, forgot how much different the headlight buckets are. Thinking I may put some Lat42 snake eye deletes on it.
Re-painted it everyones favorite green, but with satin black headlights, roof, and trunk lid. Oh and no black mustache anymore. Sorry for the poor pics, will get better ones once I get it all back together.

My son finally found time to learn to drive a stick shift. Spent 2 hours driving around in the Stealth. Good times.
I ended up replacing some vacuum caps on the Stealth, swapped out a few couplers that were very thin 3-ply instead of a thicker ply silicone, swapped BOVs, and put a charger on it since I haven't moved it in a month.
went drifting:
