Default new suspension mods are in... (pix)

so I finally have all my stuff here... I was waiting on a set of JDM Tein soarer springs since june, and twice, they did not get on a ship. So I finally PM'ed GS4Will and picked up a set of Espelir Springs. they arrived last friday, and I am sitting here looking at them, while I am studying for my test before finals dying to install them, but not being able to cause I got to much stuff to do. Anyways, I will post a pic of what I got, and hopefully post pics of the car by, or on, friday.

Would anyone like a pictorial "how to" change suspension (from stock to tokico blues and espelir springs) ??? if there is a demand for this, I will do it for ya. I know this has been covered tons of times, but I will do my best to fully explain how it was done, and take pics of every step.

Anyways- heres my first shot!

Rob

Nice setup. Exactly the same as mine.
I bought my espelirs from GS4Will last year. Good guy to deal with.

I think that this setup is the best spring, shock setup you can get. (Coilovers are obviously better but way more money.)

You will find that once the springs settle you will have (in my opinion) the perfect wheel gap.

YES! Please! I have my shocks sitting in the garage and having installed it yet because I am afraid to tackle the job. I will also purchase the springs if you're going to document the whole process with pics.
