    well after some work, paint is starting to shape up.

    not too much of an exciting update, but the car is deffinately looking better. hood still needs a good buffing and wax.

    in the foreground you can see the panel that isnt sanded or anything. behind it you can see the improved shinier panel. o0o0o0o0o shiny :D

    yup :) it will fit better when i slam it (neg camber)

    i also started to measure the bolt hold for the suspension mounts. they look to be about 60mm apart (same as the 240 spacing). tomorrow i will measure width and test fit some stuff so i can fabricate some suspension to go on her :D

    well heres an update on suspension.

    from what i can find, not many people sell coilovers for the aw11. just springs and shocks. so i took it upon myself to figure something out. heres the S13 bottom coilover mount on the mr2. slightly off, but nothing a little bit of filing and washers cant fix. as for the top mount, i have found pillow ball mounts where i can adjust camber. id also have to purchase something like these to be able to use the sway bar. link

    when eyeballing the shock/spring length, it looks like i will have enough room to lower it as well. if it still proves to be too high, i can always just order shorter springs.

    the rear is setup the same way, but i havent measured that yet.
