yeah i think it would look pretty cool do the side skirts fit as well or no

thanks guys the skirts do fit with minimal trimming, finding a set for cheap has been the issue.

i cant imagine it would be driveable like that... but looks awesome. as for the sides, yeah, they do fit, and yeah, with VERY minimal trimming. i've been going back and forth in my head for months about installing my set on my coupe....

I was actually talking about the rest of the suspension components, though.

No problem dude, ill come out to alameda when its done. pm me your number so i can give you a call

Thanks for all the positive comments dan and teej. I do what i like and let the haters hate. Breaking parts is part of the game and only forces me to come up with new better parts.

thanks, lowering springs and regular coilovers just weren't going to do it for me. I only have like $100 into them too :twisted:

Damn Sean! Can't wait to see that 1st gen dumped. Or the other one with the swap. You've been hella busy.

And excuse me for being ignorant, but what did you start out with? What suspension was that originally?
