Default front suspension install


my buddy cheking out the rust


me holdin up the old pos


taking it apart


new setup


good times, so much better than taking it to a mechanic

later on in the evening we ran into some problems with the rear bolts , one snapped the others are jammed wayy tight.
So basicly i have to go to the stealership to get some new bolts

right now my car sits in my driveway with the rear all sticking up, hehe.

all update when it's all done and will post a final pic in the integra gallery obviously :P

BTW i broke the same bolts, stealership sold them for like 10bux a pop...so i bought 2...then one snapped in half and when i went to return it they said NO i put on to much pressure, which i didnt, so i bought a 3rd

I did put the rims on, but im not done with suspension I still need to do the rear, wich explains why my car looks so damn retarded right now, but you sorta get an idea of what it will look like once it's done.




obviously not lowered in the back....YET!



enough pics for today.
