Then I also have drag bags installed in case they are needed, but they are not fully hooked up.

Looks great. I like the tail lights and the spoiler-delete is starting to grow on me...
What size tire are you running in the rear?? What was the primary reason for raising the rear (squat, bigger tires, better drag suspension)??

Looks good without the rear wing. Thats the way they were built for their intended market after all. Don't like the VX lights It's different though no one over in OZ has ever dared to do that. Alot of guys with saloon cars fit Manaro lights (GTO) in place of the ones you've fitted. Nice suspension setup. With that setup it should develop a bit more oversteer. And thus loose a bit of the inherit understeer. Good work.

Hey, where did you get those wheels from I have been trying to look for those wheels. Can you get them in black with the crome lip? Because I have seen a lot of cars with those rims and they look good. Just give me a PM.
Thanks
