make sure to get the cat back,and the rear mounting bracket for the IRS. You DOn't need his DS. Like already stated just swap your pinion flage from your axle onto the IRS

he won't be giving you coil overs being stock. Just make sure you get the ABS sensors/wires. They unplug from under the back seat. Also make sure that he includes the brackets. Like others said you'll need to get a new cat back.

You need from him...
IRS
Brackets
ABS Sensors
Shocks
Springs
Rotors, If you don't want to swap calipers just swap the pads. The brackets what's different.
Nuts and Bolts

Other then that you'll swap the pinion flange from the SRA and it will bolt right in.

If you can do it now do a front cobra brake swap too bc it will look really stupid having larger rotors in the rear then the front.

BTW: What would be a fair price if I was to swap him my SRS for his IRS and then have him do the swap and put it together for me?? Also about how long we talking of a swap here.... 3 hours? 4 hours? WHAT would you say

the gt bracket can work with the irs, but yes slightly different. The pads are different though, cobra ones are thinner.

Can't help you with price but the install with the IRS is very easy. Hard to say a time bc if you have never taken the rear apart (control arms) those bolts can be a pain.
