My car was at its standard ride height when I bought it, it drove ok but just looked a little too high on 19's.

 

I searched for a few threads about how low I could go and how to do it and found very mixed opinions, so I thought id try the cheaper option first and invested in a set of 40mm lowering springs and go from there. Im really chuffed with the results, ive been out in it the last 2 days with no rubbing at all. The car doesnt seem to track the road like I thought it would and the ride is firm but functional. And the camber didnt need altering.

 

Thought id post this up for anyone considering doing the same.

Whilst we had the car up I thought it would be worth changing the exhaust because the one that came with the car was for want of a better word rusted to buggery. So I went with the NUR Spec R Blitz option with the second CAT eliminator link pipe, the noise is sexual to say the least and the car seems to pull from lower down now where as before it seemed to surge power from 5k upwards.

 

Next up respray methinks, and new rubber :(
