And our pleasure Alex... Glad we got it done before James takes a break I guess it's safe to say it _does_ work on pre-02s eh? You gotta ride in the white car with the JRZs... man that was the best 1000 bux ever spent.

PS Do you want your stock suspension? It's in the box... If so we'll be here tomorrow as usual.

Looks nice!
How much did it lower the car vs. stock?
Where did you get the kit from?
Do the sway bars come with the kit? thicker than stock?

Thanks!

I got it used from Ed Newman on Rennlist.. but best place to get them is from Gert.. Sway bar looks the same as what comes with the Euro M030, not adjustable like the GT3 ones..but yes it does comes with sway bar...
