When are you visiting stef?
Oh, and if you find a place that sells the window weatherstrips, let me know too.
Strut braces, you gotta have em! Makes the car feel rigid in conjunction with lowered springs+shocks/coilovers!
And for bigger tyres, you just have to find the right offset!(which you don't care about but is highly essential foo!)
J was able to fit the 9" & 8.5" SSR's and he only rolled the guards and there may have been a bit of scrubbing still but it was much much better. AND, if you have the fat wheels(which calls for the fat tyres you want) in combination with a killer offset, your car would hella win!

So, i put the car in yesterday for inspection (48hour check apparently)
And Kate had a missed call this morning when she woke up. Rang back and, wellah, it's passed baby.
Here comes rego baby! Finally... after a few months, it'll be in Queensland rego, and will be on the road to recovery! Heres a pic of it at the inspection car park when we dropped it off with my rims on it. (Needed some decent tyre tread
)
