^+1 makes things a
HEAPS hotter under the hood!
Luke your bay is in need of a touch up in silver but not black!
Your bay is ready for you to come clean & paint & fit x member.
More bits you will need:
Degresser, cheap dunny brush with longest handle possible
LCA bushes (yours are stuffed)
LCA holes for sway bar are stretched & needs washer welded to it
2x ball joints
Sway bar bushes (yours are stuffed)
Radius rod bushes (yours are stuffed)
Rack boots (yours are stuffed)
I took your front shocks apart & OMG they had the nylock nuts upside down that held the kyb in & 1 of the threads is destroed, & a heap of bits where missing from the top caps! Broken sway bar mount, cut springs & all the missing bits, it would have been lovley to drive
NOT!

At least you got good leads with it! Well, three out of four is pretty good... The red ultra leads are ideal, try and find a 4th one.

After picking up the motor and gearbox up, Matt and I went and saw Kojiro at JIS and got the last of the things needed for suspension setup.
Still a couple of things needed to make it 100%
