just want to say thanks alot for the help especially being it on my EID and a Friday morning .

So guys I removed my Drop kit from my entire car and made it high again lol 5fingers to be exact just sick and tired of cops giving me grief about the car being to low so I raised even higher then stock height lol.

anyways on receiving the car I noticed my brakes is making a noise and I checked it quickly and noticed my left front side wheel caliper is scraping against my disc really badly .

This is not new to my car for some weird reasons my car must get spacers between the calipers or else it scrapes on the disk been like this for ever so i dont blame anybody for not knowing that seems to be very unique to my car.

On this rainy friday I pull in by Daiblo ask if he can quickly fit some spacers and sort this out for me . he agrees and does under 15min for me :woot: . thanks alot buddy , you saved me time and best of all making my own hands dirty .

:thumbup:

@DEVIN i really had no choice my car stands out like black sheep .

everytime Im in a roadblock I can be like 5cars back in the line they notice the car and pull me out to the side.

first thing always is the drop on my front the 60mm was just way to low man hanged over the tyres tread my arches are rolled but popo never understood that.

but thing Im happy about I can now drive over all the pot hole without my insides hopping all the way lol.

Yes its high lol I will just need to get use to it oh the black lights are also made standard again .

60mm was realy low. And you on 15s right, so the cars roof already looks lower than everyone else in the line at a roadblock. But ok you have a nice soft ride now.

lol no worries buddy , the car is sent away yesterday to remove the very short f20c box to fit a F18w hopefully that will sort out my traction issues which i badly have.

@chez maybe i make it abit lower when Pantera done with the coilovers .

Those F18w ratios will be perfect ya!!Even though i drove her in the wet,i can still see how you will struggle with traction even in the dry.
