I picked up this 94 ls400 the other day for a daily. It came with Ksport coilovers and some interior thangs. i tossed my varrstoens on from my s13 for now. Im looking to get PSM coilovers, i love the set on my s13. and obviously lower more.



here is the retired daily, now track only car.

Here's my '95 LS400 I picked up for $600 about a year ago. It came with some issues that have been sorted out.



Here's my '98 LS400 I picked up yesterday for $4900 with no major issues, just needs regular maintenance caught up, and a good cleaning.

you better hope the front calipers don't develop pinhole leaks, it's really common when they get ground (hence why i ALWAYS recco against it.)

why the mk3 coils when they make such good ones for the LS specifically?

fitment is pretty good but you're in bad need of a paintshop.

I'm hoping no pine holes develop. I've only grinded the areas that make contact with the rim. and I smoothed out a little so its not too rough looking. Worst case I'll test fit the rear wheels on the front and get new calipers and 20x10s for the rear. and put the 18x8s on a trailer I plan on building.

Mk3 coils because they are the stiffest OTS (off-the-shelf) that I didnt have to wait a couple weeks for. Got them at wholesale pricing. Valving is different than the ones made for the LS of course. Just incase I want to go even stiffer. I love the stiff spring rates. Doesnt feel like a boat any more. Plus the 14k rear spring rates will allow me to haul more weight. With out sagging alot. They actually bolted up with no modification either. The bolt holes were pretty large since the megan top hats used a different sized bolts.

I plan on disassembling the car this week to get some body work done.
