you need to see a suspension specialist that can change the spring perches over, or put coilovers on them so they will fit into your car.

I presume this is for a datto 1600?

then buy some steering spacer thingies. from Datsport are the only place i heard of making them.

then just bolt them in or get the suspension shop of your choice too.

oh yea. connect the brake lines back up and bleed them also :D

you said you spoke to wilkinsons... have you priced up with them supplying the struts and having them make em coilovers???

i did a year or two ago.... noltec coil over components with kyb shocks on your existing struts and it was like $200-something a side... thats f*%$ all

i set of custom 80mm king springs and whose your daddy!!!??

i have some adjustable front struts in my shed if you wanna buy em... they are 1600 or 240k and someone made em adjustable height... using std 1600 springs. used the original spring base.

also got some cross-drilled, slotted 3000GT discs too, redrilled to suit 1600/240k struts.... wanna buy???
