    I'm not a fan of the s13 setup but yes it can work, I'd opt for more along the lines of a custom shortened factory strut and a weld on sleve kit with some good shocks and camber tops. From there it's easy to gain or lose track to suit what you want, just get the lca's lengtgened or shortened to suit. All of these parts are quite easily available too

    Yeah that sounds hard.

    In my celica i went BC AE86 weld on front kit, cut standard struts and weld kit onto spindle, drill couple holes in your strut top, super simple.
    You could really just buy a full AE86 BC kit and be done with it for around $1200 plus a carton to get a mate to weld shit for you, thats rear shocks and springs too.

    All the bits you list look correct for putting S13 stuff in the front end. S13 LCAs need mods to the crossmember to fit (just drilling out the mount hole) or you can use MX62 LCAs.

    Custom brake lines are not required though. I can't remember if I used the AE86 rubber lines to the caliper (though this sounds more likely) or the S13 rubber lines to the caliper. But one of them worked.

    This is a good idea. Maybe run better shocks though.

    Keep it toyota, better geometry, just cost a little more. Then you wont get the massive track increase you do with s13 stuff which means you have to run high offset gay looking wheels.
