thats going to be sick... what did you do for coils?
bilsteins and cosmos. when i tested the rear, i was just on the spring. waiting till spring time to put them on though, because i'm gonna remove all the perches all around and just run on cosmo springs.
My first car was a 1991 Chevrolet Sprint. Looking back, this was probably the most dangerous bucket of shit anyone has ever driven. Huge holes in the floor, blown shocks, bald tires, it shot flames out the exhaust (regularly), and the brakes lit on fire once. Bought it for $250, sold it for $350 with a gutted interior. The reason the door is red is because it got tipped over at my grad stag, and all that broke was the window.
Next one was a 1985 FWD corolla. It was an immense step up but over time problems started racking up. The front LCA's where bent and it had a lot of negative camber, and the toe was way off and the tires would wear to belts in a matter of months. On top of that someone smacked a curb in it, and it pulled to the side hard. You can actually see in this pic how far back the front passenger wheel is in the wheel well. The axles where both going out near the end of its use too, and it started having serious temperature issues.
About six months ago I picked up my current car, a '91 EF sedan.When I got it the steelies where black and rusty, and the bump strips around the car where white. After some rattle can work I got it looking a bit cleaner, but a full respray is in the future. Since i bought it I rolled it over 400,000 km's, and blew the head gasket. While I was replacing it I noticed the engine block was from a 92-95 civic, so it's been swapped out at some point. Right now only the front springs are cut down a few coils, and I can't do the rears because the rear LCA bolts and bushings are all seized and fucked up. Low's coming after winter, when I'll hopefully have a job and can afford to replace a whole bunch of things at once.
