this is all i got till the weekend. i am shot, going to attempt to recover...

up


down


rear still needs to be adjusted to ride lower at a higher PSI. Boy do I love adjustable strut bodies! front CAN come down lower, except for the fact that the upper control arm gets in the way LOL.

any questions post them here, I will eventually get back to you.

as for the ride, I am feeling it.
as for the scion turbo build, it was getting cranked up as I was leaving. awesome!

thanks for all the support guys,

- off to bed

good stuff man! you plan on getting any lower? that would mean you would have to cut a hole for the UCA huh?

all you need is a nice new set of wheels and you're golden man
