I have a GS-SE :) GSL-SE suspension swap completed!!

Well I finally did the GSL-SE suspension swap. And now I also have tokiko blues, ST springs, PST front end kit, and new inner tie rods. I still need to swap the master cylinder, put in the new Idler arm, and get a new(different) rear brake caliper (I broke the damn bleeder screw). After I get an alinement (SP) I'll take her out to see how she handles.

If anyone around MD has a "spare" caliper and/or E-brake cable PLEASE pm or email me.

I don't have any pictures of the swap in progress or any of the car curently, with the atmosphere I did the swap in I just didn't feel like taking pictures. I was half helping a friend do a honda engine swap, and another friend that doesn't know to much about cars was "helping" the both of us. So I had to explain everything I was doing, why I was doing it, and the effect it should have. Also when I was in the hobby shop every few minutes someone would come by and ask me about my car. AAHHHH, but it's done, for the most part.

Was it difficult? Not at all. If you can turn a wrench, you can do the swap. Is it worth it? Not judging from this car, but from the GSL-SE I used to have, it is more than worth it. Fell free to email or pm me with any questions.

The PST kit includes everything except new inner tie rods. Thanks to 85gs for reconmending the kit to me. And again thanks to 85gs for the great parts.

The web site for PST is P-S-T.com ---

Please does anyone have an extra Drivers Side rear caliper.
