Swivel-dropped on Coupe 19s
Okay, one of the worst-kept secrets on Driver is out - got together at red35's (Dustin) house yesterday for a little wheel and suspension swappage. I am really REALLY happy with the results!! Z front springs and struts from JuJube's 350 plus rear springs and coupe wheels and tires from Dustin's coupe = a vastly improved look for the EM sedan. See for yourself. More pics to come, I gotta clean it up from the trip to Edmonton area and back, plus carrying all sorts of wheels, tools, suspension parts etc. in it.

Final results (with added bonus):
HUGE thanks to Dustin for getting up at the crack of noon to help, giving up part of his weekend and providing most of the parts, especially those two cotterpins from Crappy Tire!!
We had some fun doing the swap, except for those 30 seconds when I was drilling out a cotterpin and Dustin had his safety glasses on his forehead. A piece of the bit busted off and -- you guessed it -- right in D's eye. But he got it out and no damage done, what a relief.
Big bonus for me, I got a ride in his sick-as-hell coupe...holy crap what a fast, sweet ride. Can't wait now for the Alberta meet!!
