Hey all, I have a 94 GT-S and I’ve purchased now my second set of lowering springs for this car and they do not fit. The first set I bought were completely wrong and the Teins I just ordered came in and they don’t fit either. They’re too small at the top and bottom. I have no idea what to do now I’ve tried to install these things twice I’ve ordered them for this car, and I’ve had the struts out now twice, so getting really frustrated and wondering what the heck it is I’m doing wrong.
Thanks for your time. -------------------- -Sarah

Well I'm sorry I can't get pics. I don't know how else to describe it. The springs are too narrow in diameter to fit over the strut after you remove the top. They are literally too small and the strut is too big around. I don't know what else I can say. It makes zero sense to me. And I'm a mechanic so I know what I'm doing. I've never encountered anything quite like it. I guess I'm just hooped.
I have been looking at the shock/strut combo on Ebay by Stagg. Maybe best to replace shocks anyway so might as well get a set I know will fit. Anybody have experience with those? -------------------- -Sarah
