i got my front clip today. pretty sick opening a box and theres half a car there...lol



but it cam with some goodies. the best thing by far is the one piece Cusco struts with camber plates. but i need the matching rears...where could i get just the rears? what about mixing a different brand for the rear???















it also came with this HKS thing. im thinking its a fuel cut defender...but im not really sure. anyone know for sure what this is???







anyone heard of this company IMOLA? looks like a cool wheel, i'll use it. i might get it re-wrapped though.







then some strut bars and some other things...front clips are the ****. you always get suprises. but it sucks when you only get half a suspension. how the hell would i find the matching rear?

maybe ask the place where you got the clip if the rear suspension is still there?

as soon as i got the clip and seen this stuff, i called them. they do not have it. the clip was already in the US. i asked if they could get the rest of the stuff, they said no. then i asked if i could contact them. no again. and i didnt expect to get some nice coilsovers with it and didnt think of it...



damn it...

its VERY hard to communicate with them in japan, plus alot of the stuff goes through local auctions, container gets filled and gets shipped.

So in that time frame the rest of the car is god knows where?

you're better off with a decent suspension in the first place... MAYBE keep the camber plates
