Just a tip - that's NOT even. That means the rear is lower than the front - which looks ridiculous! Not to mention means your headlights need adjusting down so they don't dazzle other drivers and it will now handle like pooh compared to a proper setup.

Dude... you can't even tell the difference... all i know is it's sexy as a mofo! the only way you could tell is iff you got down and measured the back and front...
The muffler scrapes on speed bumps... its low enough... it looks even... its feels even... my guess is it is even.

wow, its a small world,
looking at that picture I would say that you do in fact own my car, one way to tell is there is a scrape under the front of the right side skirt near the jack point...
you have a keen eye because I took the wheels, taillights and spoiler off before I sold it
anyway,
the car isnt stock, I take it youve read my car thread but in short it has:
pacemaker extractors, hi-flow 200cpi cats, standard catback with ss mufflers, mace manifold insulators, airhammer intake and a tune to 98 unleaded
SSL rear springs and monroe shocks, front SSL springs, slotted front rotors, QFM HPX brake pads all round, TRW GP600 brake fluid, black painted calipers, black painted lion badges, G8 rear diffuser, tinted indicators, carbon fibre dash inserts
no I dont have a final dyno figure because I was always playing with it, you could estimate off other peoples threads who have done similar (maybe 225ish kw at the engine), I dont really care though because it was never about having a million kw to me it was about how the car feels and drives and I reckon its awesome
in terms of being a P-plater it will be fine, they only care about the type of car you have not whether its modified, and a SV6 is allowable for you. how are they gonna know if it has a tune? theres no roadside dyno tests hah!
now when I sold it, I told the dealer all of my mods but they didnt seem very interested...
yes it is low without being silly, youll be fine on 95% of bumps etc, but take steep driveways carefully and watch out for the front on those big shopping centre parking stops!
anyway sounds like you are having fun, treat her well, maybe I could meet up with you sometime if you want to chat, PM me if you have any other q's

Sorry bout me mail to you Tom... i didn't read this first... (i asked you again what its got)
yeah this cars a beast... i wasn't planning on making it a million kw's i just thought of getting a standard one and modding it so its alil better then standard.
yeah there is a lil paint taken off the front... but the dealership must of put sumthing black in it cause you can only just see it.
same as the scratches on the wing and boot.
For a car thats done 50,000+ k's it drives like new to me... and is kept is remarkable condition.
I'll chat to ya more via mail.
would be grand to meet with ya one day, to see the insperator.
Tye.
