  1. Okay I just had a look at the BC stuff and since you weld onto your current struts they will be good. I thought they were like this; http://www.otomoto.com.au/linx.htm#AE86 If you get the ae86 BC ones try and get them with S13 tops (S13 are same spacing as _A6_/_T14_) on them from the factory, re-drilling top holes is just a little dodgy
  2. You guys in kiwiland don't seem to like using anything but whole branded coilover kits Anyways, this is how we do it in australia, you buy these in a 51mm inner diameter; http://www.otomoto.com.au/HDSystems/sleevekits.htm you cut down your standard toyota struts to the height of the aftermarket ae92 inserts (most add spacers underneath the shocks) and then you weld the sleeves to the stock strut. This way you get to keep your standard hub and brake caliper spacing (which is compatible with all the skyline brake calipers if you own an _a6_ celica or _t14_ corona) and I'm pretty sure this is the way the japs do it. Then you buy yourself S13 silvia camber tops and as said earlier ae86 shocks for the rear. I'd say this would come out cheaper then branded coilovers (maybe not the china-spec ones)
