They don't make anymore D2 coilovers for CSM, these were one of the last in Europe that FIT CSM.

LINK

They are practicably the same. Only difference is in some rubber, so it supposed to be quieter.

@Flying Eagle - Thank you :) I'm so close to "finish" this product, but in month and a half I will get a son, so now I can't spend that much money on Colt, need to get all the stuff for the kid.. So it will have to wait for few more months..

Still have Quaife LSD, GSC S1 cams, valve cover and few other thingies at Chris place.. Hope he didn't sell them already :D

What is your car's weight? 1150kg or more?

It should be the same as at last make a description of on my car ... but in the meantime (if liberty) add one picture of my car here.

I weighed the car and it was 1035kg (2281lbs) with full interior and exterior (here I mean on those iron subframe in side of the bumpers).
But that was with 1.6 N/A engine in it. 4G63T is heavier for sure, but we took out air condition.
Still waiting for a few parts that are at Chris, after they arrive we will took all unnecessary weight out.
The weight depends on equipment that came with it. Mine was for Dubai market, not Europe. Only 3 of them were imported back in 90'.

You have Evo hood? Engine is still 1.8 or did you swap it? Big hole in front for intercooler :D
You should open your topic and show more pics and info of your car.

I mount the coilovers. The car handles much much better, and of course it is much stiffer ride.
My wife didn't like the first ride in it, because she is 8 and half months pregnant, so little to stiff for her atm :)
That day snow was melting and the mud was everywhere.. So the car was a bit dirty :D

Ready to come in :)

This was taken before we got the wheels aligned so the front looks higher. After alignment its the same height.

Wow nice.
I'm very much interested in your upgrades on engine. Can't wait to see your car topic :)
I will need something similar to do with hood.. When summer comes, temps are very high.

If shortly,than notsing special,560 EVO9 injectors,16g turbo,2g maf,76mm exhaust,supra turbo ic and around 1.5-1.6 boost bar.

Hood I ordered specifically, give stock hood, after its dimensions make fibreglass hood with "smile" hood in the middle of a hot air stream off.

Nice coating 8)
But you dont need coating on the gaskets surface.
Specially on the turbine housing ring area, the light coat on this area is pain in the ass for mounting properly the CHRA.

Looking good for sure :supz:

Yesterday we fitted the FMIC.
Next week IC pipes will be made, so I can finally take out SMIC.

Hey Gizmo, I have not time to put my car description, but hopefully that will come soon.

FP manifold, Evo 3 O2 housing and turbo exhaust is very cool, good shopping, but what about intercooler? What kind of car?

I bought EVO9 intercooler and a little reassigned will look like this:

Hey.
My intercooler is from a Iveco truck. It was tested on 2.0 bar boost and it holds with no problem and it cools air very good.
Maybe one day I will get Evo intercooler or similar.. For now this will do.
