Quote:Too much welding to the sleeves. Are they mild steel ? Or stainless ?
Mild steel with a zinc chromate coating (I removed the coating first from the spot where I welded). I welded it first with high current from three spots, uniformly around the strut. Then, after it had cooled a bit, I used a bit less current and connected the spots. Is there a risk of warping the strut if there's too much welding done to it?

Quote:nice work was it hard to do? i ordert t3 coilover convention weld on kit for mine hope its pretty easy to do.
Not particularly difficult. Cutting the strut needs to be measured right and double check your measurements before welding.

Quote:Are you using a stock exhaust manifold? Cause it sure looks like stock...
Yep, I'm using the stock manifold for now. After I have the car on its wheels and running, I can start concentrating on improving the engine performance. A 4-1 manifold from Martelius is what I had in my mind..
