Right about time i started this poject thread so here we go!

here a pic of the supersport coilovers they seem pretty decent and i got them cheap as chips!

changing the spings to coiloers was astraight forward job there te top bolt you hae to unscrew and two screws attached to the front suspension! and the rears are even easier as they are just the top bolt on the strut cap and one at the bottom!
i will hae to do a diagram for you fellow dubbers as with dirty hands i could not take as many pics as i liked!
here a pic when the car just had the front coilovers on and the standard rear suspension!
