I had my car with SSL/SL springs and ended up raising it up again (using adjustables), the dump pipe and cat use to hit too many bumps, etc. Have a look under the rear of the car and see if you are resting on the bump stops, if you have only ten mm of travel or less you will need to cut them down or get shorten versions. If you don't and you do hard clutch dump (or hard launch in auto), you might find it will bottom out and that's a great way to bust CVs. No travel means infinite suspension rate in the rear and something else gives, a bit of tramp and bang !!!CheersRobin.

Add the twin notril thingo's in the front of it and then duct it into your airbox.. The drift bonnet looks rediculous..

I was meaning to say, you should add the 2 air scoops into the front of your buldge, like the blitz bonnet.Was that 300 to get the springs compressed? or installed? I can do the install myself, just need to find a place to reset my current springs.
