#246773swapping 97 y33 into 99 y33 touring/suspension
i was wondering if it was possible to swap out the whole strut assembly including the spindle like the pix below from a 97 y33 non-touring model into a 99 y33 touring model. i know the pix is of insurance coil over but im just using it for reference. would all i need to do is just use the 99 strut mounts to make them fit. is there a diff in how the brakes and abs sensor mount up? the reason why im asking is that i got a good deal on some kyb with espilar springs from a 97 non-touring. the thing is the guy wants to swap the the suspension. the old car is going to the junkyard soon. yes i know i should just get coilovers but this deal is super good.(im saving up to get coils) the struts are only about a year old. thanks in advance for the help.
