    Did you take your spring pads out when you did your rear springs?

        Damn, I didn't realize that I never ended this thread. Ok 2mAn , here's your update.

        This car got a ton of work including a 5-lug swap, then an m30b35 out of my buddy's e32, then it got shipped to CA a year or two after I moved out here. Only drove it once or twice with the hard top off so I could have the top down.

          Then someone ran a redlight and I T-Boned them. They just came out of nowhere. Luckily a CHP oficer was there and saw the whole thing. It was a shitty night and I was really shaken up I didnt even remember what kind of car I hit and had to look at the photos. I called my GF and the cop had to remind me to tell her I was ok. Yeah.







          I had just gone shopping and a bag of sugar, box of eggs, and jar of pasta sauce exploded on the dash. What a fucking mess.

            So I stripped the car, kept some stuff, put some on Luna, sold other stuff. That's the end of this ride, it was a good 10 years.

                    This was about 3 years ago. Most of the parts got swapped onto my coupe, which met a similar fate this past Wednesday:
