Yes, they are coil overs, not an off the shelf item though, made up from Bilstein shocks, Eibach springs, Koni adjustable saddles and a generic threaded collar to cover the shank of the shock. The cost so far in the $8000 range for front brakes and suspension, but this is only stage 1, I have some 6 pots with 355mm fronts, floating rotors, these brembo's will go onto the back, with a 330mm floating rotor, twin master cylinder set up with balance bar, and a heap of other trick stuff. I am fabing up an adjustable rear roll centre hat for the diff, and rose jointed watts arms too....

Is that a whiteline adj swaybar?

That 'cast' looking bit to the right of the caliper mount and below the swaybar is the caliper itself right? Just turned over to get it out of the way? Had me puzzled there for a bit until I realised.
