Yep they look even better on the car than on my truck.

Cheers guys.

Just incase you didn't notice, I've dropped the front a fair bit and raised the back a bit. Also added some negative camber up front, because I can! I'm thinking the stance is pretty spot on atm but not sure if it's reasonable to leave it as is (especially since my driveway may aswell be a 4WD track). I've been having to build myself ramps out of wood to get over certain parts of my drive and into the garage haha.

I'd like to thank Dutchy again for bringing me my leather interior and my wheels.

Thanks for the comments guys, appreciate it.

Cheers for that Andy, I'm running low on cable ties haha!

Just thought I'd add (for anyone who doesn't know) the specs on the wheels are 16x8 ET0.

In these pics the rear is as low as it goes with the adjuster in, and the front is wound about 7 turns up iirc. That's about as low as it went if I wanted to keep the springs captive. Running -1 degree camber up front, unknown camber at back.

It's now a little bit higher (up 13 winds from bottom up front and up 4 winds at back), doesn't look as good but now I can get into some driveways and maybe even carry passengers hah.

Might need to borrow a guard roller to see if I can make a bit more room in there if anyone knows who has one?

Bit of an update of what I've been up to:

I had a (slowly) leaking diff, so I took off the diff cover:

No wonder it was leaking - this is the breather hole that's supposed to allow the diff to breath under temp changes:

Cleaned it all up, removed the old bush which was shot and installed my new powerflex bush

I also finally got my cert sorted

Here's a couple of other pics of how it looks these days, I've just got a clay bar kit so when I get the chance I'll clay it. I've done the boot already and I'm amazed at the difference!

Would like to wind the suspension down a little again, but my driveway wont let me!

Other things that I've done recently:

-Oil Filter and Valvoline engine Oil

-Redline LSD Diff oil

-Front lip and bumper painted (what a hassel that was!)

-Got my temp gauge working with a new sensor

-Had Ray replace my clutch slave cylinder

-Got some hubcentric rings (finally)

Aaaaand that's about all I can think of at the moment. Enjoy!
