A few more pix of the car dropped. Raised it a bit from back and front as the front was scraping the arch. Doesnt make the sound no more but is hitting against a very small bit of the arch. Need to adjust again, but weather is very bad

Aye the turbo is going to get hybrid this september. Should be getting up to 300bhp if I wanna. Back on topic though, once all the final adjustments have been done I think a few bushes could do with changing.

The test drive went well today. Just the inside arch liner needs putting back and we should be done soon. Any more help needed Raz its only a phone call away. Take it easy mate.

Looks great mate, What tyre sizes are on there at the moment? You should get some tyre shine on them to make it look a million times better!

The car has not really been cleaned in a while due to other circumstances. All the body work will be getting sorted out by my self and Raz very soon. By the time we're done with this its gonna be awesome. Can't wait to get on with it.

An amazing transformation there Raz. Looks a lot better than when you bought it. Lowering it was the best move.

I can just about see my wee cav turbo in that pic :P
