I finished up the drivers side front strut and brakes. I replaced the upper strut bearings and mount and i preadjusted the fronts to 1 1/4-30mm thread protrusion.
I finished up the coilovers and brakes. I still need to do the front sway bar. I snapped a quick pic last night and i will try to take a few better ones tomorrow so i can see how the suspensions settles in.
All up for the rotors and suspension it took about 3 days, about 4 hrs or so after i got off work for a few nights- i could have got it done in a day but i took my time. As i was doing those 2 jobs i was checking other stuff under the car also. The suspension is a coilover kit made by Vmaxx.
Looking good mate. She looks even lower than mine which is craziness.
What profile rubber are you running on the rims. Looks bigger than the 40s that are stock on the 18s.
Cheers,
Trent

look like 40's to me. could give the illusion of being bigger at the top cos of stretch.
Thanks for all the props guys-The tyres are 225/40/18's, i would like to go a bit lower-but i want to give the suspension some time to settle. PLus the roads up here in townsvegas aren't so flash.

haha, sounds like here in Surfers Parasite. The roads here haven't been updated since the town got named after a pub in the 1930's. We can still see the horseshoe impressions in the tarmac
You forgot about Parramatta road, its just a series of concrete slabs with the gaps filled in with gravel
Its really that bad...
Car looks fantastic I must say, how much have you lowered the car by approximately?
Well I can fit a finger or two between the tyre and guard on mine and that's with about a 30 mm drop so by the looks I'd say close to 50mm!
I dread to even contemplate what will happen if you hit a decent bump or what speed bumps and nasty angles are going to be like!
