Looking good!! When you say about rubbing etc. on hard corners... How low is it (approx) getting me some pescaras which are 8j and will be on sportlines (-25mm) and my biggest fear is rubbing...

^^^^ You'll be fine running Pescara's as they're 7.5" ET51, Eibach Sportlines will only lower you by around 20-25mm MAX so no rubbing at all.

OP, car looks really nice, great pic BTW.............

Getting the ones off GNJ, MC.. So they're 8" ET44.. But long as we are good that's a lot off the mind, thanks.

^^^^ You'll be fine with those wheels (and Graeme's a great chap to deal with). The BBS VZ's have 13mm poke over the standard Pescara's/Monza's, gives a much better stance too and loads of room if you want to add a BBK, win win. You won't get any issues running Eibach's and if you get ANY rubbing on hard cornering just remove the arch screw and also push the arch liner in/up a wee bit, makes all the difference.

Haven't updated this in a long time. 

So as the story goes, since my last update. I basically drove this car like it should be I installed a cat back exhaust an intake and put MPSS on all round and really enjoyed the car. Over time daily abuse and driving it hard everywhere started to take its toll the arches became very rusted and also the boot lid.

My current update involves new suspension, new wheels, big wings and stage2. Currently I have bought the following.

- 19 X 8.5 ABT
- 110mm H&R ultralows.
- SRS wings
- Edition lip and rear bumper parts.
- Miltek down pipe and decat
- Servicable parts including, sparkplugs, camfollower, PCV delete, top mounts, front wheel bearings and drop links.

Plans are to fit everything and paint the car again. Looking to install a brake upgrade of some kind also.

I'll update with pictures when I return home.
