They are fine mate, I've taken the helpers out cut the bump stops all round and taken the adjuster out on the back and it has about an inch or so of clearance from subframe to floor.
The rides painful to be honest!

Yep lights out for lamin-x they are easy to get out though :)

Cheers Matt :D

Thanks, I find the ride on the sport suspension stiff anyway so I'll get used to it. Just need to avoid bumps and holes etc!

Cheers mate.
Yep picking some new seats up wednesday for the front, and ordering spacers tomorrow.
I also have an arch roller that me and my mate with the bmw have.
Will be rolling the arches and getting a bit of poke :)

Picked the seats up last night, I will get some pics up.
They wouldn't have been my first choice but they were so cheap so I got them :)
Also got spacers on the way and will be rolling the arches tomorrow night.

It's more motor sport really, I was looking for a scooby last night but that shapes still too much :(
Hmm, true... What wheels are on there? Either I'm losing my mind, or they're definitly not stock STi's.

I know what you mean, what I wouldn't give to have one. The Hawkeye will always be my favourite, but these are still just awesome.

Hows the VR splitter holding up then? Looks reasonably unscathed considering how low it is :)

fixed :thumbup:

edit: Whoever took it, they need to use a slower shutter speed, iso, and exposure. Get the 'moving' effect.

My seat brackets are almost done so seats will be in next week :D
I now have a Momo Team 280, it's quite weird having such a small steering wheel but I like it :)
I also have a Boost gauge mounted in the drivers side air vent, I will get some pics up soon.
And lastly I've rolled the front arches and fitted 11mm spacers, but I've rolled them a tad too much so the 13mm ones I will will go on the front and I will space the rears 15 - 20 depending on how the rolling goes!
