The only thing about that is that suspension is different with each car.

Good feedback, perhaps we should have:

2.2 Suspension
2.4 Suspension
2.0 LSJ Suspension
2.0 LNF Suspension
General Suspension

Probably mods that would work on more than one suspension type.

They could be moved to an "archive" incase anyone wanted to reference them without pictures... but I'm not sure anyone wants to go thru all 509 threads and verify the pictures

2.2 LAP Engine

-Exhaust
-Detailing
-Electrical
-Interior

This way there is absolutely no way that there can be any kind of confusion.
Also there should be some kind of guideline for titles that people absolutely have to follow to post a how to.
overlly complicated. Detailing, Interior, Electrical and Appearance, should not be broken down into engines / trims. As they are mostly the same throughout. If I want a how to to install a new front bumper, i shouldnt have to do 5 different searches cuz someone did it on an lnf but not for a 2.2

Wheels and tires should be Non SS and 2.4's and than a SS category for the larger brakes. Obviously drivetrain mechanics should differ by engine.
