I just bought these Cusco Comps from a fellow Zilvia member. My question now is do you think they will fit with my stock S13 SE wheels? I was told I may have to use a 5-10mm spacer.

should fit
i used tein he w/ 205/60/15 on stock SE alloys for quite some time. steelies fit fine too
be prepared, might want to grab (or have access to) some 5 mm for safety

I actually think I'm going to order a 5mm spacer regaurdless. I plan on doing the Z32 calipers in the front and to my understanding you need a 5mm spacer to run those on stock SE alloys.

Thing is...I want to run in this autox this weekend...hopefully I dont have any fitment problems.

Does anyone know where I can pick up a set of spanner wrenches for these coilovers? Thanks! :)

A flathead screwdriver and a hammer will do the job for adjusting them

Hmmm...yeah, I guess that could work. But it would be nice to have a set of wrenches. Anyone know if they are all the same?

i would guess..no, probably different. go to cusco japan website and poke around.
or call up tein and buy some. that's the cheaper route.

i say hammer and screwdriver method is best.

$780 shipped. I was hoping they were dampening adjustable but turns out they aren't. So I wasn't to thrilled about that...but overall they are nice coils. I wouldn't say I am SUPER lucky...but I came across a decent deal.

And btw...they clear the rims/tires by about 1/2 an inch.

Spanner wrenches are different for different size diameter spanner nuts...check out McMaster-Carr if you can't find the size you need.
