Yeah i got new boots and bearings for the zx2 struts... and new camber bolts for the cars too. I got the struts from http://www.campbellracingparts.com/ for 258.00 shipped to Nova Scotia.

I got the springs from http://www.importrp.com for around 300$ shipped to Nova Scotia.

I'll post befor and after pictures of the car when I'm done.. First time for me replacing suspension.. should be fun.. I have the manual.. and the parts... just need the time now..

Haha, its interesting working in Service at a tireshop, the sun comes out for a week, and the whole town wants their summers put on, and then it snows for a day, and half of then call back cancelling their appointments. Then they get mad when they can't get in right away two days later.

The car handles perfect, very responsive. Hardly any body role, very stiff.
bumpy on the back roads of Nova Scotia.... but it makes it fun to swerve pot holes!
