    Not to be a dick but wasn't the idea of selling the SS and getting this that you had a more sensible daily?

    Looks nice, a set of ventilated brake discs and sprayed black calipers would look awesome behind those wheels

    Thank god the cops did something right !

    Leave it as is and enjoy a functioning AWD system, **** if the WRC boys get get around at stupid speeds on dirt without massive amounts of camber I am sure it will do just fine on the road.
