Has this got a smallport 4AGE in it? Looks in pretty good nick!

 

I'd hold up on the swaybars though, if you are going for new wheels and tyres get used to them and the change they make.

 

wrong :P

ive got lovells superlow springs at home waiting to be installed. I'm going to see how much of a change that is going to make before i decide to upgrade the sway bars.

 

I've currently got 15x6 rims that came with the car and i horribly hate (front left has the worst gutter rash on each spoke, hoping to one day sand out, bog and get painted.

 

eventually when cash permits, I'm hoping to upgrade to a rim of my choice. Wanting 15x7", don't mind what offset. i can always use spacers to help fill the guards if i don't get a high enough offset for my wheels.

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE!

 

unfortunately being dropped i occurred a little incident with a folding bollard (private carpark) which managed to pull my headers/extractors including bolts off the engine block....

so another trip down to the exhaust shop. New bolts and a new gasket and $170 later the car is running nice again.

wait what? sure as hell don't know what you did there, since the subframe is lower than the exhaust on these things.

Neither did I... :/ I was raging hard. Must of had the most perfect lineup. Because I've parked in the same space before and it hasn't touched the subframe.
