its not too bad actually, doesnt hang any lower than the subframes do, and its especially worth it for the results of the handeling

progress today, but no pictures yet, got the engine to start and run under its own power, just started capping all the vacuum fittings that are no longer in use and the engine started to idle better and better, still can hear some leaks just can find where they are coming from i'll figure that out tomorrow when i fix the seat bracket on the drivers side

Well it sounds sick! How the hell do you get a beast like that to pass inspection?

I forgot, is that a track only car or is it a street toy too?
