    Looks good Dave

    how are your MA's so flush on the rear? I'm running a 5mm slip on (14x7 +3) and they are over 15mm inside the rear guards

    Hey ben,

    I had to roll/flare the right front guard as it was scrubbing when i left the shock loose.... lol so the left side has more offset haha

    as for the rear one side sits flush and the other doesn't, being leaf rear end it doesnt have a panhard rod its all with the leaf package which is really gay.

    It has a 8mm spacer to make all wheels have -+0 offsets for mega drift!

    As for the rear bumper i really do agree it looks so homo but it is good to have tea partys on at tafe when its lunch time, its so long its like a table and chair combo!

    I got bored so i went to mallala for the night drift practice, had alot of fun and did sweet entrys but i blew an EGR valve pipe off so it sounded like a tractor and im sure i lost power and couldnt hold the slide.

    Body roll was the key to skidding this haha! Will do a few more mods getting short strokes for the rear tommorw so that should help alittle bit i rekon!

    Some pictures, movie is coming out soon!
