    Nah mate just standard plates at the moment, probably save the personalised ones until after I've got my rims and stage 2.

    KW's have been great so far but I've kept them on the factory-shipped setting. I might increase the damper and rebound settings on the front, but we'll see how it goes. Right now I'm trying to hunt down a rear sway bar and also some bracing, know of any places? Kinda wanna get a European brand cos I'm a bit of a brand-whore

    Really wanna take her out to the track now, but I'm not so sure about Lakeside because I've never actually driven on a track (only passenger) and I know Lakeside is very unforgiving. Gotta pop my cherry at some stage though, right?

    We haven't had any incidents at Lakeside yet (there was a silvia that went into the gravel on the hairpin) and there have been a couple of cars take a wide corner at QR but everyone drives within the limits and it's not timed at Happy Laps so you don't have to push it past where you can't control the car any more.

    Defs take it to happy laps. It's an excellent way of getting comfortable on a track. And a truckload of fun and giggles! haha

    Good to see you're enjoying the V3's I'd go H&R if I were looking for swaybars, although KW apparently does them as well?? If you can find some Kw's they could be an even better option. As for bracing go the XBrace, apparently its a little hard to fit and stuff but it blends in well and people reckon it's a good mod and stiffens up the chassis at the rear a bit
