Ut Chau and I installed his Ground Control coilover kit on his AE92 GT-S. The only real problem we had was the front top hats not fitting over the Koni strut shafts. So, after taking a Dremel tool to the top hat, they slipped on without a hitch. Installation time for the fronts was around 1 hour; the rears around 1.5 hours.
Here are the pics that were taken throughout the process...
Here's the GC coilover kit in its box, ready to be installed. And, look!, there's Ut's toes! Hahaha...
The stock front struts. Notice how little tension there is in the spring. We actually didn't have to use a spring compressor to take the struts apart! Hahaha...
Me trying to achieve a meditative state and become one with the strut. Oh, and you also see the coilover sleeve that's slipped over the strut housing. We used duct tape to insulate the sleeve--made for a pretty snug fit. To my right, you can see the back of my car. To my left on the driveway, you can see the Koni strut insert.
