Really happy that the car is just about finished. Pretty rare that you actually exceed where you thought you'd take something. Didn't think I'd get the Brembos but did early this year and almost gave up on upgrading the turbo but will have that in a couple of weeks also.

The final mod list for the car will be:

PWR stepped intercooler

PWR Expansion Tank & ECU cover

PWR ZF heat exchanger

Plazmaman pipe kit

Plazmaman turbo side airbox & battery relocation

Process West throttle body elbow

MTA 750 (.50 cover)

Earls remote oil filter

ID1000 injectors

Herrod E85 spec 400lph intank fuel pump

xforce 2.5" twin s/s catback

Venom 4" s/s dump & 5" 100cpsi cat

PAC Racing Springs

Brembo 4 piston fronts & PBR upgrade rears

DBA T3 rotors

King SSL springs & Monroe GT Sport shocks

Superpro comfort diff bushes

Axis Hiro rims (copies) 8.5" & 9.5"

DJR rear spoiler.

Custom Engine & ZF Tune.

Monroe's have been fine mate. Kings are based on the goldie and recommended them. Plenty banged on that I'd regret the springs too - sagging etc. Well, after the initial settle in of 5mm they haven't moved. The rear did drop another 5mm ish after I fitted the tow pack however which is to be expected. If I'd gone the SSL SSSL combo it would've been a mistake. Time over? Hmm, maybe higher end like koni's. That or if had the coin, Tein coilovers.

The car will be on display at the All Ford Day at Willowbank on 20th July with hopefully the DJR spoiler fitted as well. The bonnet is getting a respray and car detailed up so will load some photos from that day.

Just trying to work out an appropriate amount of low

I've got 348mm fronts 335mm rears with SSL front and rear. Used to be around 340mm in the rear before tow bar. SSSL stuff the rear geometry so no good if you want it to handle still and not potentially hurt your drive shafts.

^^ SL is basically XR height - approximately 10mm lower. I reckon SSL would be your go but again, don't do the SSSL rear thingy that plenty do for looks reasons only.

I might have measured wrong but my ssl on all 4 gave me 352 front and 340 rear Bomber.

Wish mine was same height as your front..
