Anyone know why my car would be sitting lower on the passenger side?
it's very low lol it tucks a fair bit of tire... I want the passenger side to be the same!

Possibly a stuffed spring? Not real sure.

How is the brake upgrade going?

What else are you needing to do for you to be 100% happy with it?

Still looks stunning :)

When i had my springs fitted they measured each corner before lowering and then again afterwards. Before it was out by about by maybe 10 mm i cant remember the exact figure but then with the new lowerd spring it come closer still out by a little bit but much closer. They said it can be a slight chassis twist or a bush that is stuffed. i dont think youll find a car that is exactly even

Thanks! Not in much of a hurry with brakes, will most likely do them further down the track as i don't want to run out of things to do to the car within the 3 years i still have left on P's :(

As for other mods in the short term, just get the front HSV lip and HBD boot lip i have for it color coded and fitted. Then as above just start enjoying it!

Hey mate, i got it off ebay back when i had the SS. It is a custom SSZ one, not sure if they're still selling them but keep your eyes on ebay, one will surely pop up

*EDIT: here you go!

Loving the build of this car man! inspiring me to work my car (good for me but bad for my account :p)

That shifter you have, what type is it? my clutch is on its way out so im looking into clutches but while its out i thought i might throw a shifter in.
and also your HSV Dash Cluster, does that clash with the back or look seperate? looking into painting my dash but dont want things clashing (still deciding a full color scheme)

I look forward to seeing more mods done to this thing!
Good Luck!

Willo

Cheers Dylan :)

It's a custom shortened shifter i found on eBay - not sure if the guys still making them though..

What exactly do you mean about the cluster clashing mate?



Not much progress with car, have got a new toy, a motorbike so that has been getting all my attention lol just enjoying the car how it is :)
