I think at that time, I will be comfortable pushing my car at the track. Until then, its a ticking time bomb!
You could prob find someone to buy stock struts for $100

yea stock struts. I'm still debating if I should go with Bilstein shocks or get the B14 coils, since it will be about the same price. Only thing is that the springs look super fat and some wheel set ups may rub.

Or say fuck it and go Tarmac II or KW V3.

@BRZPDX - You can have my stock struts for free if you want to stretch out switching suspension for a little while longer. They have about 2,000 miles on them at OEM height so basically brand new.

Just saw this Kevin. I'll hit you up tomorrow, this would help me out a bunch!


Car is at PRE now, getting the IC and Turbo smart Race port BoV installed, and will need to go in to find good spot for my oil cooler behind the fog light. 10psi, but with IC pressure los of about 1.5psi, so in reality about 9ish psi. I can't ducking wait!

So talking with FullBlown (Since the PRE kit is very similar), looks like an upgraded rad/shroud/fan is almost a must for their kits. I'm assuming as ambient temps rise, this will be a critical upgrade for any FI guys out there.

Damn I already miss my car, its gonna be a loooong week lol.

I'll drift a few corners for you.

Can't wait to see your new setup. Take me for a test ride when you do get it back.

Jmonty 04-01-2014 10:33 PM
I too would love a test drive when you get it back

BRZPDX 04-01-2014 11:15 PM
No prob, I'm gonna see the progress tomorrow, and maybe we can all meet up at C&C for a test drive day. I forgot how stock feels so I want to ride someone's non fi 86 as well.

you're more than welcome to rally mine around to remember how yours was prior since I have a very similar NA mods list to your old setup. Its going to stay NA for a while longer so I can finish up my exterior mods first and then I think im leaning toward getting some Coilovers next. I really want to ride in someone's car who has KWv3s as this is what everyone seems to say is what we should have in our cars. I think I want to go lower than these will allow tho.

Tall guys should want to go higher not lower so they don't have to fall into their cars. ;)
