That is a sweet ride and you should be proud of it, but I bet you are, rightfully so.

Mind if I ask how much they set you back?

Great shots of the car. A very nice example. I really like the stance of your car. I was wondering how much it has been lowered? what kind of suspension are you using.
Thanks

You guys are the best! Thanks again for the compliments. Again, the lighting makes the paint look a bit better than it is...but don't we all look better in low light?

Ross...the car is lowered to what's considered the safe maximum in front (13" from wheel center, straight up to fender lip) and adjusted via eccentrics in back to sit level. I've got 28-mm solid torsion bars in back, and Paragon's coil-over kit in front with 275-lb. Hypercoil springs. Koni yellows all around, and stock S2 anti-roll bars (26.8 mm front, 16 mm rear). Camber/caster set for compromise auto-x and street...about 2 degrees neg. in front, 1.5 degrees neg. in back; stock toe in front, zero toe in back, 3.5 degrees caster.

Michael...I'm packing sack lunches to afford the wheels...about $750 a corner. Got them through Wheel Enhancement in Los Angeles (they advertise in Panorama).
