So been cracking on with a few bits while i gather other parts needed so started by painting the arospeed calipers red was a bit faded and chipped so purple it was instead few pics of the progress
Striped and masked bleed nipples and bolts
After a coat or two of the base colour
One one left is base coat, one on the right is finished colour
Finished result
Next i started to change the cars colour stuck to Nh-o and happy enough with it after a few coats
Still to flat it back and throw the clear coat over it but colors sweet on a boxy
More pics of the progress
Also picked these up instead of the ta tecnika`s have preload and dampining adjustment so should be better also eibach 60 mm spring
Also painted the mounting feet on the rear integra strut the same colour as the brakes thats all for now more soon :thumbup:

I've got Ohlins and they are coilovers. Technically there a coilover as the coil goes over the shock anyway
But they are height adjustable and dampening adjustable.
If you take the spring off the metal perch at the bottom has 4 different height stages to go too.
Also if you stick a allen key in the top there are about 30 clicks of adjustment.
Mine are like this anyway. But mine have a different top mount, I tried to put poly bushes in but mine have rubber bushes with a metal pin in and were completely different shapes :S
