mt robbo there..?
nothing beats a ute with a dirt bike in the back of it :goodjob:
A mate took some quick photo's on the way home the other night at an industrial area so didn't even have a chance to clean it but considering he is only new to photography they came out pretty good.
Car is a MY9.5 SSV Auto AFM with only mods being a dus otr and oztrack tune 9mths old with 9,000km.

This is an insight to what dirty is...

So on an SS (V8) the equivalent front height would be SSL? I tried calling King Springs but they're closed today.Quote:

i do have the occasional scrape, but its pretty hard not to in these.Quote:

iv you lower the rear, you have to lower the front, even just SL just to drop it a little
Awesome photos mate, makes me want one even more!
Is that the std suspension blakrok?
No it was lowered by Wholesale Suspension Penrith when I took delivery of it, just the typical lowered springs not the superlows. If it was the superlows you'd have no exhaust left within a week.
All these shots are taken of me in first gear or under hard braking. For a big heavy long car it actually handled very well.

Thanks to a very helpful W427 owner I now have the genuine W427 driving lights and (bloody complicated!!) mounting brackets installed. Then had a HID kit he sold me installed on them. With my 70w HID high beams I now have plenty of light at night! :lol:
May eventually change the driving light HID kit from 35w 4300k to 50w 6000k for more power and to match my 6000k low/high beams. (Colour difference not noticeable from in the car though.)

It's going back for the day on Wednesday to get the hardtop and alarm upgrade and I've got some plates on order too. I think my first upgrade will be the stereo - possibly an amp and I'd like to drop the ass a few mm, see how we go.
Cheers John

the brake package was from duspeed [forum sponsor]the biggest brakes for the money thats for sure guaranteed to half your braking distance,and the replacement pads are the cheapest on the market by a long way,cheers daveQuote:
