After a failed inspection, decided to completely redo the suspension. The struts have been blown for awhile, since B never bothered upgrading 'em back in the day when he put on the no-name coilovers .. So now, working on rectifying that mistake.
Putting on Tokico Illumina struts and H&R Race springs. The springs are rated at 450F/360R .. but I figure it can't be much worse than riding on ****ty coilovers and blown struts. Besides, soft spring rates are boring.
Suspension operation will start on Monday. VERY excited, haven't driven the car in two weeks -- it's been sitting at the shop.
