Here are the fruits of my labor and the reason for all my questions on suspension and brakes. Koni Adjustables & Eibach springs w/ 89 Daytona CS Brakes. Everything is new: Calipers, rotors, pads, ss brake lines, springs, struts/shocks, strut mounts, spindles (used, but bead blasted & painted flat black), & the hub assemblies were new also.

Wholly crap that looks way nice; makes me want a CSX-T! Did you paint the calipers? Good work man.

Yeah, silver. Wish I would have painted them red now to match the Koni's, but I think it is kind of rice.

17 x 7 ADR Phantom Machined w/ Gunmetal...matches the gray bottom nicely!:eyebrows:

It sets a lot lower in the front now. The stock to the eibach is a HUGE difference!:thumb:

Hankook "Y" rated tires that are 215/45/17, but they are not enough to stop it from spinning. I am looking at getting some DR's (225/45/17) to drive on the streets for the front and use my slicks (MT 24.5x8.5x15) at the tracks.
