Dropped the front a little bit more





But that was just silly, raised to a more respectable height now

Oh, and this is NOT a photoshop job.

Paul

Been thinking of lowering my P1. Can you tell me how much all that costs and where to get it from?

You can mail me off-line to avoid all that commercial exposure and all that stuff..........

lol @ Brun, dont think I would make it onto the drive with it that low

Rob, not bad eh Mail me an update mate

Gordon, I dont mind about commercial exposure I bought the suspension from a member of the BBS, it had previously been fitted to his car. I also purchased new HKS topmounts All the stuff can be purchased new from Johnny @ Grasshopper ProSport, tell him I sent you and im sure he will knock off a drink for you mate

(01942 671 239)

Cheers Lads

Guy you little bitch, dont make me drive up there to schlap you!

Cheers SB

brett555 - Carbon bonnet, other carbon bits Pics on my old car on http://www.p-o-c.co.uk

Dunk, couldnt live with those massive gaps, UGLY!

TBMeech - It is a little stiff Then again they are currently set to the hardest settings, I will be adjusting them to my liking soon

jack b - Only 18s mate, dont like the look of 19s myself

Dave, you will have mail soon mate

Frank, the only knocks are due to the crappy build quality! but the ride IS rock solid, then again its not my every day car so I dont mind

Cheers lads

Looks good Jack, I had AVO suspension on my first WRX.... see here:



Paul UK, Im using HKS pillowball topmounts, these retail at about £200 a pair. I got them from Johnny @ Grasshopper Prosport, call him on 01942 671 239 and he will be able to help you out. Tell him I pointed you in his direction.

Cheers
