got the front shock off in liek 15 mins was on course for super speedy times!!
then...
His used Koni shocks didn't come with all the hardware. So John and I started messing around with the sway bar, while they went to go get parts.
6 or 7 hours later the suspension was complete.
3 hours later the coil swap was complete.

shinka,
you gotta start breakin' it in n' pay really close attention to everything. Listen for noises, see you can feel differences in ride quality n' don't be hesitant to take things apart n' double check (i know it's saved my *** a couple of times)
it was good seein' you again n' even better seein' you work on your own car finally
Keep it up!

Atilla yeah dude im gonna tryem now, i mean on the way home i could hear it but i dont know if its because the shocks are new to the car ( dont know if thats a factor or not) but i rolled over a few bumps on purpose now and then and i didnt hear this said noise.
idk but i just got ready to take it out for a spin, and thanks for the props .
