overshooting low

It's been a few weeks with the car up on jackstands having to wait for parts and plates. The front coilovers are set a bit too low for the time being (i will check height when the other wheels go on). I'm using tein flex that I bought from the good people at r-crew, cut the bottoms off and welded them to the oe strut housings. My cousin made me top spacer plates

I had initally tried the short stroke route with mr2 kyb agx and they just weren't low enough. With these coilovers, my downpipe pretty much touches, but hey, i'm on 14s right now and the flexpipe has always been a bit low. If its still too low with the new wheels I will redo the fronts a little higher.

In other news, i put in t3 control arms (which took much longer than they said they would take to make) and a solid differential mount from thezstore.
