Over night parts from japan was another F&F joke... LOL
Thanks for all the complements, as for all the pricing here goes....
Coil overs are sold with the spring for $95 each AMERICAN
Rear springs were $112 american for the pair.
Total expense at ground-control.com =$341 without shipping.......
I figured this car is gonna stay, so why not enjoy all it has to offer. All at once took a beating on my bank account.
"Realize though my car was handling like **** and my brake rotors were wearing thin.
I Didn't want to do all this, I Had to do all this!"

hmm... I was going to say... Ground-control is based out of Cali, what the hell were you paying Japan shipping on that stuff for...
Ok, Just a question, but is all of that going on your -SE.. An S4 turbo? Manifold & runners? And those rotors aren't going to fit your car without a large amount of work....
Details please?

yeah, well I don't really want crappy ones that crack... If they're cast, that's good... drilled afterwords all pass and just go for the powerslots like I'd originally planned....
The car actually sees a lot of autocross, and some road racing track days, soI don't want to skimp out here..

Jimmy, can I ask why you paid nearly $700 for a set of Tokico Blues? I hope it's a typo...I paid about $220 for mine, shipped. That's in CDN funds too, it was $177 US shipped.
I'm also considering doing the GC coilovers. How many pounds are the front springs rated at? I think it's 300 but I may be wrong. Let us know how it turns out, it's basically what I want to accomplish on my car in the near future. Thanks.

Nekky,
yes the front springs are 300lbs/inch and the shocks came to 690 with tax to be exact. Then you got a great deal on yours.
Rx7gsl-se,
brembos are ordered as such, walk into a performance shop and ask for drilled brembos and you are done. That was what I did. I'm probably the last person on here that would skimp on my car, as you put it.
Timmya2,
The Ignited starter button, is a starter a starter button.
Iotus,
That turbo might be for mine unless I go full t2 like my bro. We picked up the motor yesterday and it's an s4 not s5. None the less since we might both go microtech I may sell my header and my turbo my 13b 6port. Or for me just a haltech f5 cpu.
