Birthday presents for my 7 !!
Well, she is tuning 20 this month and she deserves a good birthday party. Here are some pics of the new parts to be installed. Once she is apart I will inspect all other suspension and driveline components to see if they are in need of replacement as well. I will update this thread with progress pics.
Thanks

I am more concerned about the handling aspect then the ride. The RB springs are not the stiffest out there. I think that the teins are stiffer than them.
I am going to stick with the stock sway bars for now until I can compare how much the handling improves due to the bushings, springs, and struts that I am installing. I do not autocross or track the car so I am not sure if they will be necessary.
I cleaned up the calipers with a wire brush and brake parts cleaner. Then i washed them them with some dish washing soap and let them dry. Finally I painted them with high temp paint that is supposed to be good up tp 1200 degrees. I hope that it holds up.(fingers crossed)

That's some awesome consideration for the rsexy-seven. I wish i could afford to show my appreciation as well, although i've been saving so it won't be too long! Also good work on the cleaning and painting, looks professional.

Well, as expected with any project you are bound to run into problems. I did today while attempting to remove the rear hubs from the halfshafts. I have tried the BFH and also tried using a puller, but to no availe they refuse to come off. I am going to continue my efforts to break them free, but I am open to suggestions.
