You are going to enjoy driving that puppy.
Couple questions though. You show a pair of struts and a pair of shocks? Is it too late to take those brakes back and get the ad18's? Did you replace your control arm bushings? Endlinks? Do you need Pulsar Swaybars? Where'd you get the header?

Nice job.
Edit: Woops, I see you have an 86B11.
Ya...I may have made a typo...struts in the front, shocks and coils in the back. The B11 doesn't handle front brake mods too well...the best one I know of is the deisel brake swap and I wasnt able to find the parts at the right price. I didn't replace the control arm bushings or end links; they seemed stiff enough for now, may do that later though once I drive it. Not worried about a pulsar swaybar right now unless you have one you want to sell for cheap and it's a relatively minor swap (i'm short on time). I got the header from S&S (street and strip) online. It's a solid 4-1 design. Fits nicely, no complaints so far, and it was only 181 buks.

Sorry, I don't keep track of b11 stuff. Didnt realize they have shocks and the ad18's don't work. Swaybars are easy but do the b12's fit in a b11? I have 2 sets of spare sways. One pair of the little stock ones and the other pair are the middle size. (Stock for the coup.) Anyways, if/when you decide to upgrade the steering, you'll be even more amazed after being used to OEM.
