I had it set up nose down.
170mm front, 195mm rear.
I need to get my new S to those figures as it's scraping the floor!

That doesn't look (to my untrained eye) a lot different to stock ride height?

The front is noticeably lower. The rear has come down a bit. My car has 61k on the clock so I suspect there some sagging but not a lot.

Best to measure the ride height front to rear and adjust to stock specs. It's easily done or you can get WIM to do it for you at a cost.
Spring preload is very important with Tein's - get that right and it'll ride close to stock.

Has yours sagged? Mine was 20mm drop over standard OEM settings. My 55k miles suspension had sagged about 8mm which is to be expected.
msisleman - yeah its an oulton drift day, and yes they still do them, one quite recently I think.

Needs lowering IMO
Wheels and brakes look great though
