I may have too make some hard decisions involving this car soon.
If anyone has a genuine interest in the car and wants too talk figures PM me.
I will not let this go too the first boyracer with £50 in hand.
This is my first car, i'm very very attached too it and i'm very apprehensive about letting her go.

Frank made them for his car, he made himself some new ones and i bought these.
Very tempted too drop the rear more but the bump stops are already beckoning.
Really need some Corsa shocks and i need too get the axle sorted...

How did you space your rear out dude? I've heard that you need to use extended studs but I have no idea where to get mine :p That car's looking awesome anyway, it's the exact stance I want to achieve on mine.

The rears aren't spaced but i know what you mean about extended studs.
I have some 20mm wheel spacers but they make the wheels just too wide.

Those are the extended studs you need, but you need 16 of them haha.
or 8 if your only doing the rear.
This is marks guide for fitting them. (Members only.)

MASSIVE thanks to you dude, I've been trying to find some everywhere! Only place I could find was kits in America which were something ridiculous like £130! You've made my day, haha.

Well no suprisingly... Running on 3 and you can hear bits smashing around the engine :(
oooh ! i suspected something like when my original 1.0 started smokin bad when i de-revlimited and held it flat in 2nd, the oil control rings were gummed solid and the excess rpm shoved them further into the ring grooves lol.
maybe a bent rod like mine ?
