These are some parts from my previous suspension setup.
RSR Race Springs (rate: 5k front/4.5k rear) - $100 shipped

Heres how the drop looks:

To make these springs work properly:
1. You will need to use an adjustable type shock, if you use GR2s or stock shocks you will likely have a very bouncy ride.
2. You need to cut the stock strut bumpstops on the front or use a shorter Koni bumpstop. Otherwise you will have insufficient suspension travel (again bouncy). Example:

Koni Yellow Sports (Front inserts, externally adjustable, PN: 8641 1364Sport) - SOLD
Koni Yellow Sports (Rear, adjustable, PN: 8040 1081Sport) - $BO

I have one rear that is in good operating condition (minus the surface rust) and one that is blown. You can possibly have the bad one rebuilt. Or just buy the good one if you are already running yellows and need a spare.
They have surface rust but nothing that affects the integrity of the part. They include the bottom spring perches which they do not include when new. They also have the top mounting nuts and plastic bumpstop washers.
Nismo Top Strut Bushings - $BO

One has a worn bearing with play, the other bearing is worn but no play. To me it seems like the bearing can be replaced if you spend the time to investigate. The bushing rubber in very good shape and not worn or dried out. It is stiffer than stock.
s13 rear knuckles - $BO

Dust shields are cut-up and rusty, they should be removed or replaced. Everything else is in good shape including the bearings.
