That was quick guys, only just left yours.

Good days work 2day, shame about the fronts but no point starting something you know you can't finish.

Don't remember half these pics being taken, barkshire - you must have been busy with the camera.

Yeh thanks for coming over today stu, was a real help. Hopfully get the zorst on tomorow. Which will be bloody loud. But worth it. The rear has settled better now and very low. Might even be too low. is there such a thing?

looking good matey, taking good shape!

stuey i was taking a few random snaps without u guys looking to get the genuine effect so no poses and the biting points so fuking high compared to my mrk 4 lol n its siiting uber low now.

n niky there was a piece of glass from a headlight that was so fucking sharp i hardly touched it n my fingers were bleeding for hours pissed me off, but all good now hehe,

do da exhaust 2day with scott see how it goes even though the weather is propa shit, but thts the dubbing way!

barkshire

Cheers nath. Was in JD the other day, asked but you wasnt in till later. Yeh i was thinking about selling them or trading them, but I'm thinking about keeping them now.

Exhaust is on now aswell. Proper nice, haven't got the 4 branch yet, i need to get a gasket. But the zorst is a catback, Straight through mid box to G40 backbox. Sounds Mean!

does sound sexy timeish, sounded phat on the GT and when that decat goes on its gonna sound sweeeeeeet, you've got the gasket now so no excuse for it not to be on by the time i get hme from work 2moro lol and then have my future GT with the normal one on so we can run it for a bit lol (i will buy gasket on way hme btw scott)

oh and i made some custon door handle inserts for the GT looking sweet i'll get scott to get a photo 2moz or summin

keep up the good work and i will 2 mwahahah

Got stuck in today to get the fronts off. A mate lent me his impact wrench. Which helped alot!!!. Bear in mind a month ago i had fook all knoledge on how to change mk3 suspension, i pritty much put it off on my last mk3 gt, But lowerage is the first mod i think. Yeh so i think its quite simple but it can be tricky luckery i didnt come across much problems apart from removing the drive shalf nut. It was on proper tight. I did the damage andy way and removed the sterring arms, as I'm just swoping the suspension i didnt need to remove the shock from the strut, which was a benerfit as i dont have compressors. So here are some pictures from today, gave the shocks a clean and paint. and some pictures of my progress on the NZ. Also fitted the Push botton start and Air to Fuel ratio meter under headunit in pic

Enjoy.

Nothing just fitted them. That just with steelies. I'm sure the wellers are going to rub, i need to raise the rears to fit the wellers in and they tuch the arch.
