        "Why buy new when slightly used will do?"

        Unmasked bolts are like unfolded side mirrors during proper winter storage mode.

        You should always mask your bolt

            well it happened, ordered about $1650 worth of crap tonight for it. (will get about $160 back in core)

            Still remaining to buy:

            coil overs

            brake pads & fluid (still on the fence about pads)

            front stainless brake lines

                        I've got a stance coilover/camber plate setup already welded up ready to bolt on. I also have a RX7 BBK that I could include.

                        Bad picture, but:

                          Do you know the spring rates?

                          I probably won't need the brake stuff as I've already ordered brakes/calipers

                                    Got the new wheel bearings and hubs pressed into the trailing arms today.

                                    Only things I'm waiting on is the skid plate & tierods (and the crap I haven't ordered yet)

                                    Gonna hopefully convince myself to work on it tomorrow

                                      This was more of a pain in the ass than I'd like to admit, especially by myself a584a19006dc4e29a38df37fc78704bb.jpg

                                      8b2f588fbf5d13d4c25e3ab90cc5cea4.jpg

                                      Butttttt the rear sway bar is in. ST 19mm. Can't imagine doing that with all the subframe crap in the way

                                        I can confirm the lack of joy that takes place during sway bar installs. The flatter cornering is all worth it

                                          With the subframe in place installing the larger sway involves both wheels off and creative threading the bar in from the passenger side. It works but is a pain. Key is to figure out the proper orientation before you start threading it in. Much easier your way.
