The scoobs always sit so much lower over the pond.

Must be something to do with gravity

thanks everyone, ya i like it to sit low, but for around here in the states i look like a monster truck. im getting some coilovers but will keep it at this height. im waiting on some WRX sedan rear lateral links from a bugeye so my track width will be the same front to rear.

and ya the door is bad, but the passenger rear was worse, i work at a subaru only wrecking yard so im just waiting for a clean door to come in so i can put it on.

OE brakes are bad enough with standard power, brembos are deffo a good move. I'm looking for a 2.5 6speed at the moment to upgrade from my P1 box...not easy to find at a decent price...
