Steve, How long ago did you install the suspension on your car?

And Peejay:
Rear springs:
Eibach # 74878

What rate are these?

Fronts (supposed to be 350#)

age of suspension

I guess I have had it on about 6months now. Remember, I had this same set up back when I raced CSP. Peter now has my old set up. I dont remember what the rates were back then. PS check out the thread on 1st gen. dashed. I posted a pic of the dash after I installed it last night.

nope... those are all the numbers on them.. I couldn't make it out either...

And I saw the dash pic, looks really sweet. Seems as if you did some more work after I left last night. Seems like it woudl almost hurt to cut hols in it for the gauges.

BTW... the Scirocco strut cartridge bodies are a little larger in diameter than the RX-7 ones, especially at the top. Kind of a shame, 'cos they're a lot stiffer than the RX-7 ones and the shaft is about an inch shorter. The shaft diameter and threads etc. all look to be the same, too.... Oh Well!

Yah, I worked another hour or so(till the wife came home). It is really going to hurt to cut those holes! I definately want to cut them right the first time! By the way check out www.gurumotorsports.com !
