So today I finally got around to redoing the ENTIRE suspension on my G20t.

It's got 165K miles on it, and the bushings / shocks / springs were SHOT. In fact, it got a nickname last time someone borrowed it: "The G20 of Death".

So, today she got ALL bushings replaced, new ball joints, new springs (Tein S-Tech), shocks (KYB GR2)... Big job. I think I ate 3 pounds of undercar grease and dirt, lol....

This weekend, I have to fix a persistent PS leak and reseal the oil pan, and she should be good to go rip around town again!

GR2s? Weak!

Haha, I kid, I can see why you used them in this case. Have fun with that PS leak, those can be a pain to track down.

Uh, and pics? Those S-Techs dropped it a little, no?

Drop was more than I expected, but it looks mean.

Anything would have been better than the ORIGINAL shocks after 160K miles, lol.

I'm damn tempted to do the "no PSF, vented rack" mod.
