I dont think it was much at all.....not one dent flawless interior and the coils, rims, brakes, and lug conversion cost more than what I paid...and its cheaper to insure than my other piggy

Nice man, and that is a pretty good price with the coils, 5-lug, and rims. Looks like it has new breaks as well?? Really clean though get more pictures!

I will get more pics tommorow. I need to raise it up about an inch maybe more the cat is about 3/4 inch from the ground. but as for my plans.....true pig build... everything on my old one is going into that one....except my cage damn sunroof wont support it...unless someone knows otherwise...I should be getting my hatchback back to me on this comning friday from the dyno and tuned. i will break in the motor in that one and then swap it to my new one...shooting for around 350-380, the shop wants 450-480....hp, i dont think the later is likely not with the turbo and injector setup

yes i BUILT a single cam, and this will be its new home....and for those interested my build is under ...true pig build... now some picsNow this guy before me had the car way to low and seems to have not even cared...look at the oil pan and sway bar\/so now it is raised 2inches the cat was a little over 3/4 inch off the ground before I did that. he had the coils all the way down and then removed the height collar and put it on the bottom so I had to totally remove the fronts from the car to properly adjust them with the height collar....but hey at least he kept the body nice

Do you plan on ever matching the rims up, or just keeping them like that.

I was actually thinking of swapping the new fresh turbo beast into this one and a couple other pieces like the diff and rear bushings and cage but the cage wont fit...after seeing my hatch today...i fell in love all over again so i might do something else with this one....

and are you serious about the rims....they are staggered same brand and style
