Buying my suspension
I just tried searching so don't flame me for it =[
I'm going to buy my suspension setup for my 01 gsr.
I currently have stock suspensions and am going to get the tokico illumas and ground control setup
Now my question is, since I couldn't find any sales that sell them as a set, I'm going to buy everything separate and what parts do I exactly need to buy?
Like...I understand you need the illuminas shocks and the gc coilovers, what else do I need? Washers, top hats, brushings, etc? Do I need to buy all stuff separate or does certain things come with the shocks or coilovers?
Sorry for the noob question
but thanks in advance!

Re: Buying my suspension (DOHCter VTEC)
This sponsor sells combo packages with GC coilovers and Koni yellows...

You'll reuse some components from your stock suspension. You could upgrade to GC top hats to extend strut travel.

If you buy everything separately, you will have everything that you need. Just buy a new set of Illuminas, buy a new set of Ground Control coilovers, and if you plan on running fairly low, buy a pair of Ground Control upper mounts for the front. Everything necessary will come in the boxes. You will re-use your stock rear upper mounts.
