Default Suspension is DONE!

I've been trying to do it for MONTHS now, but I finally got off my *** and did it...

Tokico Blues, Eibach Sportlines, S/T front and rear anti-sway bars, upper/lower front and rear tie bars. Rolling on 16"x7" Velox VX-8Rs on 205/45 ZR16 Kumho Ecsta 712s.

Damn car handles like a... well, like something that handles SOOPER good.





And what she looked like before...

Nice EF! Next step is to get that rusted fender fixed before it spreads like cancer!

Yeah... that's next. I've done all I'm going to do to the suspension, now I'm going to do the body work and sell the wheels... I want a 15".

Damn those rear fenders!

Heh.

Yeah, you just need to make sure you remove the fender liner. That'll keep water from getting stuck up in there and rusting out everything.

Yeah, that's what I figured.

Quick question, tho... if I remove the liners, can I get to the backside of the fender so it can be painted?

And I jumped the gun... the NEXT project is putting the rear discs on. I have everything except the rear brake lines. Yarr!
