I dont need much, just a little little bit but need to know how much that is lol

If I buy what im hoping to and then fit and take the springs out and dont fit then buggered, so doing as much research as possible first before go any further.

Have E-mailed him, can do the calcs based on your wheels, offsets and tyre sizes just need a real worl measurement to check it.

The other two VXR8 equipped Monaros are both at the fish I believe awaiting work.

> Hey,
> Just wanted to say, stunning Monaro! Saw it on friday in the car park and tonight (Saturday) on the M20.
> I wasnt sure about some of the styling bits from some photos, but in the flesh it all works and it looks fantastic! It sounds even better.
> Cheers for the noise on the motorway, by the way the lady in the passenger seat nearly went through the chair the acceleration must be......brisk.
> In summary: Quality car
> Simon (the guy in the white 320d BMW with the windows down....now looking at things with V8s)
