looks class :) a small amount of lowering would certainly tidy it up that bit more

what's happening with the RXII's? :wink:

Got my coilies put in today, Fronts were easy, backs were a pain in the ass, had trouble with the order of bolts and washers to go in, therefore the coilover wouldnt hold , and it kept coming out after tightened. Then i found that you need to use the gold metal washer. the big one., Used that and was ok. Still need to put that washer on the other side and raise the car slightly, as its rubbing

Cracking car there mate. It's been a pleasure working on this all day today. It was worth doing the suspension. Get some more pictures of the process of doing this. All the late nights in the garage working on this has been great fun. The sound installation is quality. The speakers sound really nice and crisp. I'll give ya hand tomorrow with the rear end.

Bro I think the tracking will need to be done. We'll find out tomorrow on the test drive after throwing it around a couple of bends.
You owe me big time lol:P LOL When you coming to do my Cavalier turbo 4x4 Suspension? Only kidding.

Good luck with everything Raz. You need any help at all give us a shout. I enjoy working on this car. Done more on this than my own lol....
