Fatti's "im an old bastard" 929

[fatti03msp]

no.. i traded it in on a 2012 caravan for the wife.

Just was a b**** to find parts and to repair. Parts where super expensive for it too.

every day i swear something broke and never could find parts on ebay or at any local junkyards.

I know the feeling 100%. Parts are either stupid cheap because it is an ancient car, silly expensive because it was not a popular car, or straight up nonexistent.

aftermarket parts are not the US either found spings for it but they where from australia and with shipping was 600 bucks and dropped the car only an 1"

Found HE coilovers for like 3k but never could find an answer if they would work on a HD.

spent alot of time on Japanese yahoo looking for parts haha.

I cut the springs on mine just to get her a little lower. Not the ideal way to go but all 4 struts are completely shot anyway. I'll be putting together coilovers soon. FD rx7 strut bottoms work on a 929 but they need some light modding and the fronts and rears get swapped.
