I didn't go through all the pics earlier, didn't realize how clean she is. Looks amazing acekid! Check out re-speed.com. Go with them instead of rb. I have rb springs and tokico blues now and wish I would've knew about re-speed earlier. Welcome to the club

I was checking the site of re and if I'm not mistaken they don't sell regular springs, i only see those coil overs and i don't want to really put coil overs in my car seems to complicated.

Ah shouldn't be bad if your mechanically inclined. IIRC the street/race coilovers are bolt in . It will cost more but you get what you pay for and when it comes to suspension I say re-speed.

They look more like reupholstered 2nd gen seats to me. The thigh and torso bolsters on the stock seats don't look like that.

I think you're right, they probably didn't start out as leather.

The leather seats have different bolstering patterns.
