Install day!! (lots o' crappy pics inside!)
So, last night Dcash13 and I had a mini install day. I don't know if you guys remember, but when he bought his 98 ITR it came with some 17" flat black Rota Circut 10's (not the best lookin wheels) D wants to change to some white wheels, so I am letting him borrow my 15" Racing Hart CP-035's for awhile.
It was extremely cold outside, and really foggy so the pictures aren't great. we'll have a real photo shoot one of these days I'm sure.
Heres Dcash (Dustin) working the Tanabe coilovers, it was a bitch doing the height adjustment without the wrenches
Racing Harts fitted, and Car SLAMMED!
It was really foggy outside, thats why the pics didn't turn out so great
His R looks 100X better now that he doesn't have those ugly rota's on there, lol!

I was thinkin the same thing, but he's able to drive around without scraping, and it looks damn nice in person. But he'd better be real careful!! Header is like 3 inches off the ground! lol.

Thanks, 3 door garage, with 3 tegs ftw!!
PS. Pay no mind to my LS w/ the busted out rear hatch, haha. for those of you that remember my other thread about it, I was able to find a black hatch with LS spoiler for $150 at a junkyard 40 miles from my house!! I'll be doing that this weekend.

Re: (AdeJong 03)
hint for the wrenches: Use a flat head and a small hammer, and just hit the bottom or top ring to break lose, then use your hands.
I threw the wrenches away when they came in the mail.

well im not sure what your setup is but the wrenchs would have saved about an hour of my time.. my old skunk2 coilovers on my old hatch was easily done by hand since the spring was so tiny.. but these springs were another story.. i had to use a flathead and hammer and tap on each strut for maybe 30 min each.. it would barely budge.. the bottom one was easy but the one with the spring load on it barely turned one tap at a time. but i guess that shows you the difference between a skunk 2 sleeve coilover and a tanabe fully adjustable strut..
