Excellent write up Craig - I'll be bookmarking this thread

The car looks good too

You could have cleaned up the rest of it, and perhaps painted it

looks loads better riding at theat height.

i am still unsure of what to do, having had my front shocks and springs replaced due to the drivers side being damaged by smash i dont need to spend anymore changing them for the minute but i am liking the sight of it lowered now.

does look a lot meaner looking.

This issue has been the subject of much intellectual debate by S2ki's finest minds:

Looking very, very good.

Now get out there and drive it some more so we can have some more feedback.

Hold on, you're somewhere round the corner from me.

Let me know where and I'll come and have a look!

Really sharpens up the way the car sits.
Let us know how the 'testing' goes

I think I might go down this route Craig. Thanks for an excellent write-up. The only problem I'll face if I did go ahead with this is feel like an F1 driver and each time I went out and drove drifferent roads I would adjust all the settings therefore spending all my time doing this and then being too tired to drive.

Don't they have one that has just a 2 click setting, one click optimised for the track and one click optimised for the english roads.
