Hey all I just ordered a blacktop sr for my 92 hatch. I need suspension as well so I came across these jdm coilovers called GAB coilovers they look nice and for a good deal. Does anybody know anything about these? Are they any good?

i have them on my 180sx.
they're nice & stiff. don't know how low they go... (haven't lowered the car since i got it)
Grant had them on one of his S13s... they were nice there too.
They're great coilovers.

Out of curiosity, is your motor your first mod?

This is the story with me. About 8 months ago I bought a 95' 240 with plans of a full on s15 swap. Just before i was about to order the s15 engine swap I TOTALED MY CAR UUGGHH. The insurance company + the leanholder FUCKED ME OVER BAD. So i ended up loosing around 3 grand out of the deal. About 2 months ago i found a college student in town that had blown the stock ka engine on his 93 240 hatchback and was going to strip it and sell every little part on ebay. I told him no no no ill just buy it all from him at once. so i got the car from him for 300$ :). But to answer your question. I did a few mods to my previous 240 like tokico gas shocks, springs, an injen intake, ect... didnt get NEARLY as far as i wanted to with it :mad: So right now my current 240 is stripped BARE. I have all the parts... its just been stripped down. So I will have to re-assemble pretty much everything from the ground up. Yeah you guys will most likely be seeing a lot more of me LoL.
