Hey all, long time-no post. Winter is coming to an end and I guess it's time to start worrying about my little car again! mazda1993, I tried putting 00 P5 fronts on my GTR, with no luck. The springs rubbed on the side of the car when I set it down so I took them off right away! I figured they didn't centre the same. But they should be the same shocks as you already have on yours correct? Was I too hasty taking them off or did I screw something else up?
Maybe I put the right side on the left? would that matter?
Thanks in advance everyone.

I'm guessing he's running a coilover sleeve kit on his GTR, so he probably cut off the OE spring perch to make more room.
edit: generally left and right front struts are the same, but flex line location will be different.Last edited by Mazda_Powered; 03-12-2013, 11:51 AM.-Jack

were your old GTR struts damaged? or just a blown seal? Ikd if I've mentioned this before, but you could always get an insert from Koni.-Jack

GTR rear brake pad is the same is 1st gen RX7, but I don't know if they shared calipers or hubs or bearings. All the BG protege/gtx/r use the same big strong wheelbearing front and rear, least as far as I know.'90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
'90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.
