DIY coil-over kit

You can get a GC kit from Paragon for about $220 or so. I've got a procedure on my website on how to install this kit. Also how to convert and use pre-'86 struts on your 951 so you can use a wider variety of strut-inserts (cheaper too).

The installation procedure for the 2.5" coilover kit isn't quite finished yet, but it'll give you start. Should be done by the middle of the week.

Looks great so far. Looking forward to the finished article. Also waiting for feedback on that PVC shims because my buddy welded his and your way looks easier and cheaper...I commend you for the idea and after your feedback I will go that way as well.

My friend looked at your pic and commended you on the PCV spacer. He said the welded spacer on his made them expensive. Said he'd go your way next time. Here is his finished strut:
