I thought about coilys fot a while ,but do I realy need to chop my struts ? ,cant I just screw the nuts down ,or will it bottom out ? Would do the coily and camber top kit for that price but im not too keen on chopping the struts .doesnt it make the car sit like 4 inchs lower ? ,could I get away without chopping them ?

Hi Russ,
I might be a little vague here but can you please explain a little more what you did? Was it basically an adjustable strut top that you bought from Ford? Where were the eccentric bolts for? Were they like an offset bolt for the strut top? Keen to hear more details.
Cheers.

im using the otomoto sleeve kit, on 200b struts, cutting them shorter and using r31 inserts. also using s13 cusco tops, with the spacer and tube nut, which otomoto keep in stock and fit the cusco bearing perfect.
the guys at otomoto are real helpful. well atleast he was with me. also into datos!!

What setup is that Levey? Looks sizeable! The calipers look like VL turbo or something like that.

I'd have to check with Estyre cause he put it together, but I think shortened 200b struts and como brakes (not sure which model).
Pretty sure its setup with info from pigdogs thread:
