Can't say much about laws as they vary from state to state.

I'm in Vic, so no hassles, easy installed for less than 2k.

Insurance did go up by around $40 lol.

If you go for these get the discount coupon from AFF. it's only 5% but still good.

Any damper is better than the crap they put on them std.

For purely road use it's hard to go buy the Koni reds. Specially when someone in the know sets them up for you.

Coilovers will go that low on the front but not on the rear.

Ride on your bump stops, specially short or cut ones and you will be up for big bucks in repairs to the rear end. Possibly more.

Going below a 345mm ride height is just going backwards in the handling dept. It might turn sharp and feel good at road or close to speeds. First time it steps out just let go of the wheel and try to put your head up your ass.You wont be bringing it back. If you can get it to step out that is cause it's gunna handle like a barge with no rudder.

And I laugh at the shoite chicks do to themselves to look good. GAY GAY GAY

Ben, the xyz's are wicked. I mean not that I have driven in a car with anything else neither have I had anything else on my car. the only negative that I have is that the rears are a little soft. however pete and wa suspensions is onto it and is getting a new set of rears for me in-wich they are going to re-build and see if they can get them to stiffen up more. Handling wise... wow. A huge difference between stock and now. It corners hard and flat on the road and when you wanna be silly, you can feel where your car is and makes drifting a breeeeze :D

I know that other coilovers are alot more $$$$$ but for what I paid for these, they are wicked. I also have shortened bump-stops and thinking about a full bush kit.

Dre..... mate car looks mean :) dark argents are boss. Im looking at some staggered fitment 20" immatations atm. just need someone to buy my gen BF typhoon rims haha

ill be sure to get some better picture bud. I just havent had the time with work being busy.

I think it has real stance. it looks tough, its not dumped so it doesnt look try hard, but its not a 4wd either.

im interested to see what it will look like with 20's on it. with an aggressive offset and staggered fitment. I think I could have found a winner with that combo.

I havent seen any FG's with staggered 20's.

Suspension city in North Melbourne is where I got mine done. Have a chat to the boys I'm sure they can help you out. (they can get the SSSL springs if required, they can also cold compress them if you want)
