Had some time to mock up the crossmember, powerbrace, and front suspension.







I really do enjoy the fact that you can't really tell I have drop knuckles/spindles. Too many "loud" colors with some of these aftermarket suspension component companies.

Should have the car back on the ground within the next week or so. Reassembling the complete rear subframe with baller bolts, SPL bushings, and PBM goodies.

Also managed to get more goodies for my brother's red Kouki build, but I'll keep that on the DL until we make more progress.

Funny because thats the first thing I noticed when scrolling down ahah. Looks great tho Jonny.

Just curious as to the choice to use drop knuckles, do you plan on drifting it?

No plans on drifting. I just wanted better handling when driving to and from the grocery store.

Had to improvise this morning when installing the SPL solid subframe and diff bushings, but I got it done.



Then, installed the other new goodies I had. New Z32 backing plates, PBM arms, Baller bolts hardware, etc.





Didn't get a chance to snap some pictures of my Cusco diff with Greddy cover prior to sealing it, but I should have it all installed by tomorrow.

Installing a fully assembled subframe by yourself isn’t exactly fun, but definitely doable.



Officially back on the ground. Focusing on the engine bay these next few weeks. Engine prep along with install.

Nope, finding that perfect balance point for the jack is fun.

I've had some distractions as of late, but I will update this before the end of the month.

We were tied up for a while working on the red Kouki.

Cleared some space and pulled the motor out from storage.

Now just need to get it up onto a stand and start replacing some of the weathered hardware.





Other than hardware, rear main seal, and a few new fittings, this thing will be ready to go.

I have a few standalones here at home, but I'll ultimately run whatever my tuner recommends.

Usually stick with AEM EMS V2 for simplicity.
