So the starting point of the suspension it was wore out.
So I took ALL of the suspension apart and put all new EVERYTHING IN.
It was at this point I knew it wasn't a BEATER build any more......
So I found a S15 HLSD and installed it along with powder coated everything and new hardware from Nissan. (not shown here)
So I had bought these cool Cosmis xt206r in hyper bronze since I normally run black wheels on everything it was a huge change for me. They fit the car really well but ran into my CTSV brakes big time.
So I had to buy a set that would be somewhat cheap, light and that I KNEW would clear. Enter the RPF1's.
With mock up done and room to spare I wanted the bronze look back.
The big turbo kit I had bought came with a H1C Holset and a DOC Racing manifold. The turbo was in great shape but was from 1980's and the manifold was warped so I did was anybody in my position would do sell the holset and send the manifold off to a buddy at a machine shop.
Then a got my replacement turbo a Comp Turbo 5556 Triplex and got to fabricating my FMIC piping.
