Nice car mate, personally though I think you need to lower it just a touch.

Sitting like that is actually making the 20's look small at the back! :hmmm:

But as you said, if it's a daily then you've probably more keen on keeping the ride smooth on rough roads.

Nice either way!

 

[Poison Ivy MY10ssv]

Thanks for the welcome. I think so as well but I can't bring myself to start scraping everywhere I go. (I want to keep it as brand new as possible, for a bit longer anyway)
Walkinshaw have an upgrade for $690, would get 30mm lower with 25% stiffer rear and 15% stiffer front...it would be a different car
Soon I think..

 

[Jesterarts]

Haha yeah thats fair enough, pacing yourself with the tinkering...

You have any audio clips you can share of the walky exhaust system?

 

[Poison Ivy MY10ssv]

Unfortunately no audio available... but from 3k rpm it gets pretty darn good. Sport shift down (I got the 6 speed auto..it's my daily driver..) and you get a nice burbling backfire...
Pretty quiet cruising (100kph at 1300-1400rpm in 6th) but play with the gears and it all good

Over the next few years (probably go all walkinshaw) brake upgrade, lower, headers and then MAYBE a supercharger/cam upgrade....

Looks the good mate. Yeah Sydney roads are crap. Might ahve to look into this walkinshaw suspension upgrade myself.
