Looks good with the coilovers but yes i would say raise the rear up to match the front then will be looking :thumbup:

[Freddysan]

Looks great. Say goodbye to ride quality and practicality though

[ctr-lib]

Cheers guys ye it is quite low needs setting up yet

I don't think the ride quality is that bad

[ctr-lib]

I'm loving the car at the moment the coilovers have changed the car completely it handles way better. I just nerd the Geo doing as I can't push the car as its all over the place. I'm going to get some buddyclub rcas aswell as the frsu and it'll handle even better

[Freddysan]

Did you paint the calipers while they were on the car? What process did you use step by step

Cheers

[ctr-lib]

Yes i did it with the calipers still on the car i read the how to-remoce brake pads I removed the brake pads then I sanded down the old paint till smooth, masking tape the brake disc and spray everything with brake cleaner.

When dry I painted two costs of red etech brake caliper paint and left to dry

Sorry its a vague description but you get the jist

Just a little update IV booked the car in at 8 speed for the Geo setup and then it'll be spot on.

I'm going for a weekend in wales with the Mrs so expect tunnel videos next week :bigthumb:

Update had the Geo sorted at 8 speed was advised to get new Tyres as they were all different so just ordered 4 falken 452s 215/4517

cheaky picture at eight speed (hope stevie doesnt mind )

I tried the rsx map but tbh the tuned cal. you have on at the moment was the best one.

The car runs fine no knocks or anything is it OK to run for while and use on track days and drag strip till I get a full tune?
