    Sorry to those who would disagree with me but I reckon he's accidentally put some XA - XB Falcon springs on there! Probably should've dropped the front before posting.

    Consolation is, once the front is dumped and the rear is lifted a touch to match it'll probably look a whole lot better to even those who don't like it at present. I certainly wouldn't be driving it anywhere like it is at the moment though. Mr Plod will be all over it!

    That looks a lot lower than most people running coilovers on Vortex, they seem to go to just a bit of tyre tucked under the arch. Nowhere near that far.
    So my guess is on coilovers screwed all the way down just to see how it looks. You would get extra points if you could live with it like that all the time.

    Can't wait to see it when it's done!

    haha yeh shes on coilovers, and yes mostly that low just to see how low they'd go.
    cant wait to drop the front just gotta track down the right tools and ill be all set,

    also thanks to those who are calling it "dangerous" and "unsafe to drive", just because a car isnt what they like all of a sudden its a hazard on the road, cracks me up.

    I'm sure you wont mind the odd defect fine if it's lower than 100mm, apart from that looks crap that low we aren't in the US where all the roads are flat.

    yeh im willing to cop the defect, just wont go lapping the foreshore
    though i dont see how this can make it dangerous, the only damage (if any) would be to your own car.

    its not like you go up a hill and its grinding along so i dont see how road flatness is any issue, only issue would be sudden angle (ie speeedbumps).

    who mentioned anything about a pocket full of cash??? geez some people on here need to live a little
