That's low, and with the FPV style bars you'll have some fun with driveways, etc. Looks tuff though. 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 !!!

Cheers

Robin.

Thanks mate, it actually looks lower then it is, I can clear drive ways fine so long as its nice and slowly lol, yeah speed bumps I can sometimes hear the cat scrap, but iam not sitting on the bump stops still a good 15mm away, as for the hard lauching I dont really drag or launch it that much anyways, rather drive it and show her off rather then fly by and ppl say what was that red thing lol

cheers charlie :blush:

Im just trying to find a tuffer look and I was thinking that mayb the drift bonnet might do it :stupid:

get that rear wing off it and it will look alot tougher.. and lower!

Where did you get your springs reset? and what was the price?

O and keep the XR8 bonnet.. Add the twin notril thingo's in the front of it and then duct it into your airbox.. The drift bonnet looks rediculous..

you think I should add what in the front :spoton:

cheers charlie

lol, it doesnt make much sense does it?

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.
