Personally i think its a bit stupid to put s13 strut assembly and lower arms in a 1200. Its just so unneccesary. What are you really getting from it? Height adjustment, better brakes, increased track (not neccesarily a good thing). Why bother with all that crap when you fit the s13 brakes to kb110 struts and convert them to coilovers quite easily. I mean if you can do the s13 strut setup into a 1200 you should more than be able to do coilover and s13 brakes on 1200 struts.
Non oem struts in 1200's/most cars is stupid without looking at what you really have done. As said before, you're completely messing up the suspension geometry.
parts availability and cost effectiveness. S13 stuff is everywhere and its cheap. if you go modifying the puny little OEM 1200 struts you have to buy the coilover kits which are always overpriced and custom strut inserts and valving to get a decent shock and even then you're stil left with the puny shock bore which will be less effective and more prone to overheating on a track car. doesn't sound so stupid to me.
175 tyres on a 7" rim on the other hand really makes you wonder!
