It does look good in action. Sounds good too. I notice you cut out the parts of the vid where you spin lol.

By the smile on your face every time you came off the track, I am guessing you enjoyed it :D

lol shhh quiet about the spinning bit :-D
Yes matey, i'm in pure heaven when out on track, can honestly say there is nothing in the world i love more than push a car or bike to the limit :-D

Have just fitted some cusco camber topmounts and lowered the car by a further 70mm giving a 110mm drop over standard.

Must buy trailer as my next job..

Haha

Before you ask, your old one is NOT for sale

The car looks so different with a few inches removed from the ride height. Joking aside, do you expect the ride height being reduced that much will help and make a tangible difference to the cars handling?

Still think you should bring that to Donny in October mate :thumb:

lol i did keep thinking about asking about it :lol:
Definately up for Donny, just got to see what's happening with work as i'm toying with moving jobs at the mo.

Tbh apart from the visual side of things the ride height won't make a huge difference in the handling, the car really needs coilovers, arbs, engine mounts and bushes amoung other things to make the most of it.
But i'm struggling to justify how much money i should spend on it, right now as it stands i could have a huge amount of fun throwing it around drift tracks, but if i want to go to the next stage and make it track ready i need to spend around 1k+ on suspension bits.

Bearing in mind i've got a serious urge for the sound of itbs howling behind my head

decisons decisons lol

I've added to your thread on DW saying that if you want to borrow it for Lydd you're more than welcome.

Small update.

Diy lowering was a huge fail with capital F, so have ordered a new set of lowering springs.

Also started work on sorting the rotten arches so as when i do finally find some sweet offset wheels i'll be able to roll metal arches rather than just chiselling filler. :lol:

Cut and ground back to good metal.

Zinc primed ready to weld on new panels.
