#10865, "Tanabe Coilovers Install + More"


          

Went rather well, would have been a lot easier with impact tools, had to keep bringing the parts down to my Uncle's machine shop to get the old struts apart to get the top "hat." More travel time than install time heh. Here is some pictures, notice the bad tire wear due to poor camber. These pictures are powered by Mike! Thanks mike! Enjoy-

new wheels are 18" ADR M-Classic with 235/40 Toyo Proxes T1-s. Coiloves are Tanabe Pro SS Coilovers. Old wheels were chrome Rota's with Kumbo Ecsta Supra tires. Old tires had about 2000 miles on them.
