90q brake conversion & CO adjustment question

[Richard J. Andrews]

The 90 struts bolt on, but you need to change the following parts from the 
90...
brake rotors and calipers, ball joints, and outer cv joints....
i'm about to bolt up my g60 calipers...
nice upgrade though..
larger balljoints and wheel bearings.
and better brake upgrade options.
