Well I waited until I got something to update my thread and I did. I treated my self to some coilovers and went with Ksport Kontrol Pro's. I had a buddy that had them on his s13 and it road very well and he beats the hell out of his car and still no problems over a year and maybe one other guy I know that has them. So I researched some other coils and this one just caught my eye and since I only daily my car, I think it will be okay until maybe next year if i decide to go a different route.

Over all the car drives very nice I still have lots to go lower but I will wait until I get some wheels to see how fitment is. I have the settings at 15 all the way around and when it sets I will re-adjust.

Some pics, I will update with some more later on.

Thank you Fed ex



Coils on



and on the ground



oh and I hit 200k WOO!

 

Carpet looks great with that interior!

 

Dang, I have a brand new set of ksports for sale for the sc. I wish I would of seen this thread sooner.

 

So I bought these, I really wanted them so I had to get them. Sizes arent crazy but spacers will be my friend to make them sit flush. Once they come in I will take close pictures of them and on the car. Couple other things coming in.

welcome and good luck with your project.

 

Every time I almost talk myself out of dying the carpet, somebody posts how nice it looks.

 

Nice find! Love the black carpet. That is one of the first things I want to do to my interior.

 

Yeh but now I am kicking myself cause I didnt leave it out long enough for the dye to really soak in, but I bought some SEM paint which was recommended on other post, so it look good now. If you guys only seen it before I dyed it ha it was terrible this was a major upgrade and I got to clean under the carpet.

Well I get my extended lug studs in today, so I will be putting up a spacer just to bring out the rim a tad bit. Hopefully get it aligned this week, and also get my new grip royal steering wheel too

 

New Grip Royal Steering wheel and its awesome. Also got some black door panels and trim for $200 at the junkyard.

 

very nice find ....

 

Good job, brother- restoring a fine piece of machinery to her former glory. I'd say both of you made out well in that bargain, you for finding a hidden gem at an awesome price and the former owner for sending her to someone who'll clearly appreciate her.

You've done great initially, we look forward to future updates. I can't tell you how good that carpet looks, and truly ties the car together well...

 

Its coming along thanks.

I am in love!
