When I welded the rear top hats together for the coilovers, one wasnt perfectly centered. This led to the passenger side spring always making odd noises under heavy compression. Finding 1.8 inch tophats wasnt the easiest thing to do. Thanks to South West Speed, I sourced a pair, and now the rear sounds and operates like stock.... Other than the higher spring rate!

Also, ever since I did the 2GCDFIS the coil bracket was only held by a single bolt. Finally, it is properly hard mounted. And nice and level, unlike before.

A local photographer was taken with the 'ole FB at the Dayton Cars and Coffee. This resulted in some high quality photography!
