I ordered my coil springs today

im getting 4 hotrod shocks modded to fit the cavy with the strut parts if it works (pretty much like koni)they are 1/2 inch shorter than the stock struts

if it doest work im getting tokico or koni this summer

I received my neon rear disc brake backing plates

and ive got a couple other goodies on my to orderlist like urethane bushings and rear sway bar along with a bonneville brake master cylinder! suspension work this year

and i am slotting the strut tower to have and adjustable camber!

for what its worth if your getting shocks modified it may be cheaper to just buy a pre-assembled coil-over system.

If i'm not mistaken the Tein SS setup already has camber adjustability.

^Luck bastard.........

I would not reccomend slotting the strut tower however, but to each their own.

if he has a machine shop it would be better to just make the proper camber plates.
