Strut mod Pt 2

Well, It was a crazy hectic mod. Actually the mod was pretty easy but finding someone to do the cutting and welding (basically the whole mod) was hectic. Don't think I took any pics so I'll sum up. Went with 200sx inserts. Didn't realize you had to lower the spring perch. With these wheels and offset the perch is right on the wheel.

And I can't even fit coil overs because the rim is right up against the strut tube. I ended up cutting a coil and a half off the stock 510 springs. it brought it down about 1 1/2 inches. I forgot to measure before and after. but when lowering the car with the floor jack i got it stuck under the cross member. So at least I can tell it's lower.
