Here is another update with the new stance gr+ coilovers.
If I had it my way, I would have the rear as low as the front, however I cannot even get to the front gate let alone the driveway.
I did however manage to drive 20m along the footpath to the neighbours driveway and cracked my front lip trying to get out, whilst finding myself stuck AGAIN on their driveway!
So I have had to lift the front 1cm from when this photo was taken.
I think once the lease for this house is finalised I will be moving to a house with a more mx5able (mx5 drivable) driveway so I can lower it more.
To date the interior is still empty.
