13bke26 Posted June 9, 2010 Report Posted June 9, 2010 to convert the front end to coilovers did you get a sleeve kit or what? and whos doing it Quote
luke.t. Posted June 10, 2010 Author Report Posted June 10, 2010 yeah mate using a sleeve kit. was gunna do the conversion myself but decided to get pedders to do it.... its gunna be close to $1000 for the whole conversioin but its way safer/better than chopping the springs... plus ill end up with around 4inch of adjustment....

Jesseb369 Posted June 10, 2010 Report Posted June 10, 2010 what brand of coilover weld on sleeves and springs are you using. I'm looking at T3's right now and there nearly 800 american dollars. Quote
