SO I decided to redo all my suspension being that my car is 22 years old and all of the bushings and suspension arms are factory. Picked all this up from Vitaly at Aceupmotorsports. Great prices and better service, he hand delivered a set of New Ksport coilovers to yesterday!

I also ordered an energy suspension bushing kit, Isis Control arm kit (which i have part of but the rest should be delivered friday or sat.) And finally i ordered a new turbo since mine is on its way out. Ended up buying THe Isis rs3871, which is a direct bolt on for my turbo, yet can push up quite a bit more lbs of boost, and spool about the same. ALso have a new CLutch waiting to be put in, and lastly I have a 3" o2 housing that will be installed with the new turbo

Should have most of these parts on within the month. But im pretty excited for these coils, here is how my install went!
Here is some pics from the install from last night.

tackled the fronts first! Knocked them out pretty quick, Measured distances between collars and mounted them up.

Put the car down and WHOOPS! Offroad mania this weekend.. Needless to say the wheels came off.

Rear tucks real good! Had to raise slightly on passenger side...

Overall handles great, Needs alignment im sure, but it rides much much better then my beat ass setup before. front needs to come down some more however.. still a little to high. =) oh and ill be fine tuning the dampening system as i get used to the feel.

We're not hating on him. Its just annoying to see people post completely pointless threads in the chat section and clutter things up. There are plenty of threads for him to post in. The Pic Thread, Post a pic of your latest purchase, etc.

Don't have to have brains to become a premie, just a paypal account :keke:

save this stuff for the build threads. Then we can all like it once it's done. People buy coils everyday. Imagine if everyone did what you just did. I would have two threads in a 4 month time span....because yes...i bought two different sets of coils. lol.

We all know how excited you are to have coils...it is exciting! But share it in the threads that are appropriate so that zilvia isn't just a newb forum like nico, and has useful info.

Sounds like someone is mistaking forum police for assholes. We aren't policing shit, but shit threads like this don't fucking belong. You want to make a thread like this? Go on fucking nico.

Also: Shitty parts+shitty wheels+shitty paint job on wheels and car = Shitbox.

Jesus. I didn't even post when we swap yashio factory coilovers and ikea formula arms on to my wife's car. No body gives a dick lick about ksport. Why would you need to have ksports delivered? Aren't they in phx?

Ugh...

Didn't need its own thread, didn't need a million posts arguing against the merits of the thread.
I will end this now.
