Richard,
Amazing project. Looks like you and I have similar taste in some of the parts, though I'm on a bit more of a budget - even still, I get accused of buying spendy parts.
I have a problem with my (earlier) set of UP coilovers. Where the UCA comes out, it hits my 17x8, 4.75bs Coy's C-67 rims: (Eleanor style)

It only happens on hard braking, but still. I have a 5/16" spacer on there and the right side (non-driver) scrapes the UCA a little on hard braking. I have filed down the UCA and the rim has a few scrapes on it, but it still happens.
Question is, when you look at my photo there, does it look like your UCA, or is yours more round and less teardrop-shaped? I have heard that they redesigned that and I have an email in to them with no reply. What's your wheel size there, 17x8"? 4.5bs?
Thanks in advance, should help me figure out a few things.
Joe
