Well, after the disaster with suspension shop #1, I found people who really know their stuff. GSA Wholesale Suspension at Slacks Creek. It's always a good sign to see a couple of EVO Rally cars in a shop!
Excuse the photos, they're from my phone. :)
This one shows new rear suspension, bushes, adjusters:
Drummond coil overs, note cool progessive rate springs and front strut top adjusters:
New front floating discs, DBA 5000 335x28 with EVO 8 alloy hats:
Custom made caliper brackets:
Every part of the steering has been replaced, every bush is brand new uthethrane. I can't wait to drive it.
The new plenum should be ready next week, then it's off to FIST at Wacol for a Haltech EX6.
I'm EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!

What rear suspension bushes did you use?
Do you mind me asking how much the coilovers were?

Just for your info Sanchez, I put all new Noltec bushes throughout. Had Pedders press out the old and fit the new bushes in the rear arms. No problems. Everything fitted fine.

DMS Coilovers are EXTREMELY expensive (like 4-5k a set) but they don't last overly long. They're designed for motorsport not street application. Expect to be rebuilding them at about 30,000 kms.
Sorry for the bad news.
Could you PM me your brake setup and the costs?

^^^^^^
The 50 and 60 piston coilovers do but the 40's don't.
But these coilovers are great, they have independent bound and rebound adjusments.
