Color isnt exact to what its going to be, but close, after the cage gets welded in I will be repainting the whole car. That will probably be next year when I return from deployment though

Trying to get some ideas on what suspension I should order, I am looking into PBM Coilovers and knuckles. Not sure if I should upgrade swaybars, bushings, or any thing else..
So any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

no sway bars
hotline spindles
supernow tierod ends/spacers
k-sport, stance, enduratech, DG5 coils rule of thumb: godspeed before PBM unless you can them with normal front camber plates.
OEM front brake pads, better rears. adjust ebrake cable @ ebrake to your liking.
go burn tires.

Hey guys sorry for the lack of updates but ive been sitting in Japan for 4 months lol, I was expecting a ton more from this deployment. When I thought Japan I was expecting drifting, awesome cars, and tons of parts. Well there is drifting about a hour away at the bullring, I have no car though and the taxis are expensive... Theres some cars here a couple cool FD's a ton of beat up skylines, and a bunch of 240s. I havnt seen a single FC though. and last I havnt gotten any parts, we have been so busy that I havnt even had time to try to find a junkyard here...
Updates on the build though.. After talking to a couple friends I am selling the car. It was alot of fun while it lasted but I think its time to move on. The plan after selling it is to buy a running Turbo 2 to slide
. Its easier to keep something running then it is to get something running. Plus I am certain that I can find a T2 for cheaper then swapping a LS1 into this one. So hopefully in a couple months I will have a update on a new Fc...
