    put on some pacemakers and you can tell the difference there been on a while now and going good i also put some low kings inthe back along with a fresh set of kyb shocks alot better i m just waiting to do front. I also put a new whiteline sway bar upfront and even with the shit suspension you can tell the difference

    i just seem to pour money in it but i enjoy it ive also done the inlet manifold gaskets and put new coils on recently and i do all the work myself. Me and the other half just bought our first home so rebuilding my engine may take some time not partying for me

    lowered the whole car not to long ago and got an allignment, my strut was bent real bad and cant be alligned properly, then i smashed up the front in that major downpour in melb a few months ago and made it worse, now i have to take all the suspension back off and put in a new strut. one side looks like its got a mad camber like a super car only thing is itsnow wearing out my tyre real quick on the inside
