  • That video is really good. As is the car.
    Best thing about it, is i've never seen anything like it. Basic, simple, perfect.

    • The car should be sitting lower soon which is exciting. Aim is to get the sills on the floor with the stock wheels on, obviously the RS's won't let it sit on the sills as the fender will be resting on the tyre/lip. Speaking of which, some big things are happening with the RS's, ****** gonna ****! There is also a colour change on the cards for the car itself.

      I should be getting some black front grill thingys in the coming week, which should clean up the front end. At the moment I'm just running the two outer bits of the three piece lip as I cannot be bothered putting the middle bit back on/looking at getting the STI lip from Ultrex.

      For some reason my battery keeps draining itself. I removed my horns and what not to see if it was that, but still draining it. Will check out wiring in the boot today/tomorrow to make sure nothing in there has changed. The rear is self notching too if I drive laid out completely, so will need to stop doing that until more funds can be put into the notching of the chassis rails and making more clearance around the bag setup.

                  I don't want to step them up to 17's, I like them as 16's but definitely eying off some 17's as daily wheels. Wouldn't mind some NUE's or BLQ's to be honest with you.

                  Anyway, got my new plates today (number plates). Wonder where I got the idea from...

                      • Front struts have been wound down, so even more lows at the front.
                        No photos yet as the weather is crap.

                        I might even get out there tomorrow and notch the front myself. Might be getting hung up on the inner wheel well bit, not sure at the moment, without a hoist it is difficult to see exactly where the wheel is hitting/driveshaft.

                        I'll hopefully get the car up on a hoist in the next couple of weeks so that I can then get it all fitting 100%. Will hopefully make more clearance up front and up rear so that I can run max camber as well without the bags rubbing.

                        Then I can get it on the floor.

                          • Decided I'd go and buy some more suspension upgrades. The following were purchased, all Whiteline goodies.

                            1. Anti-lift kit.
                            2. Front and rear end links.
                            3. Front 22mm sway bar.
                            4. Rear 22mm adjustable sway bar.
                            5. Roll centre correction kit.

                            Now to get installing this shit tomorrow as well as some other things getting done too...

                                Because endlinks at the front snapped. Instead of just replacing them, I said fuck it and bought everything to replace. But damn the front sway bar is so difficult to install...

                                Might have to take it to a shop to install the front and rear sway bar, as well as the roll center correction kit and anti-lift kit. Don't want to mess it up, but then I go, I did the struts and shit surely I can get the other suspension components in.

                                Alas, I deemed the front sway bar too difficult with the urethane bushes to install so I gave up yesterday and put the old sway bar in with the upgraded endlinks. Now I just have to book it into a shop to do the rest...
