Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
£600 is 6 times more than the car cost in the first place......
The idea is to get it handling something like a car (as opposed to a blender) for as little monies as possible. The S13 idea came about because I was offered the stuff for freeness.
I'm happy to run cut springs if the S13 G-max things are a no-goer, Christ, I'm happy to try and bodge up the old dampers if I had the first idea how to refill them or whatever.
Since the S13 struts apparently don't fit
, the idea at the moment is to drain the originals and stick different oil in. my only concern there is are the seals or something likely to be knackered? Bearing in mind I think the dampers are FUBAR'd now - surely they are that way for a reason - and if I change the oil, surely the new oil will go the same way as the old?
The rears I'm kinda happy with now... I'll hammer the S13 dampers on one way or another, and run the cut springs. At least it will be 'like' a car.
