Bump for Nick1 questions on GC weld on kit.

 

Niiiiiice. Tein, green huh? LOL!! Looks awesome! I finally put my IMSA front bumper on, and what a difference it makes. The car is so much more stable. Now I just need the diffusers that you have to direct air to the radiator. Not trying to steal your thread, so the suspension looks awesome.

 

That looks very sweet Mm...are the koni's adjustable ? top or bottom adjustable ?

 

I got Illuminas and the GC coilover kit, it's like the little brother compared to what you have. That's an awesome setup, can't wait for the write up!!

 

Looking great. Good luck on the install.

 

I need some coilovers!

 

Adrian, you get the 84-85' strut tubes and I'll weld/paint them for you buddy.

Using the 84-85' strut tubes allow you to do the following anytime in the future;
1. Upgrade to 4x114 wheel pattern by purchasing GSL-SE Brake rotors and bearings.
2. Use the Big Brake conversion kit (FC TTII brakes and 5 lug pattern. From ReSpeed.com)

If you use the 78-83' strut tubes you can't upgrade to any of the above and basically waste the opporunity for future upgrades with the strut you just put some much time and effort into.

Looking good. I'm really interested in how this ends up. I know groud effects does front weld but what'd you do for the rear?

 

The rear is the Eibach 200# springs with the deadcoils, the dead coils can be cut to adjust your rear height. I will be documenting those as well. I'm cutting my rear fenders and putting on Fender flares, side skirts and rear skirt.
Finnally putting the "Slammed" into the GSL!

 

Same setup i have but, get some 2nd gen 4 lug hubs instead of 5 lug for the Respeed big brake kit, so you can keep the 4X114 bolt pattern. Re drilled the brake rotors to 4 lug, and get longer wheel studs

 

I'm going a different route due the fact I have 3 complete sets of 4x110 15" wheels and I don't want to convert and lose my precious wheels. I'm looking at another option to keep the 4x110 and do the FC TTII brake conversion( I have the kit and the FC brakes on the shelf). That will be a seperate writeup and maybe a new product to offer to the community.
Top Secret for now.

 

cool beans! keep us posted

 

Meh I'm all about the 4x110. I've got 2 sets of rims. And my custom rims and slick's I'm not willing to give up LOL!!!
