Up to you Tim, My bearings and rings were not scored or scratched and rod play was fine. In fact, the motor was built 25,000 k’s ago by previous owner and I still decided to do it. Keeps me occupied lol and at least ill know exactly what’s in it. By the way when you gonna let jay get a nights sleep, poor guy lol |

i gues you need to decide if you wanna rebuild it now or later... whats happening with daily transport etc?it only takes a couple of hrs to get a cordia motor and box out so its not a big deal if you decide to do it later. i cant remember what you have waiting for it but mebbe put a couple of the bolt ons on and get a retune to cut down on some of the black smoke under boost then when winter comes around and you cant drive it in the wet go the full rebuild *shrug* while were on it do you still have that rear lip? not really worried how fudged it is, i'l patch it up then take a mould off it

You should put a strut brace to cover the standard holes on top of the strut tower, it’ll keep the boys in blue happy. |

hey Tim what model (evo, vr4 etc) are the coilovers off? and how hard was the tower to drill? i got some vr4 ones coming in the next week or so, so just sussing out the best way to do it |

| Post subject: | Re: FRONTN |
Tim’s HKS coilovers are off an Evo 6. Aligning the shocker would be harder than drilling the actual holes. If positioned incorrectly it throws out castor, this is not a problem as cordia’s have factory adjustable caster rods but it helps to get is straight. |
