haha, no worries, I was like erm wtf does that mean! Yeah, cheap as chips mate :approve: Really want to go lower than 40mm.

The exhaust is a piece of piss to fit tbh mate, its just hassle getting your old one off if its rusty. Make sure you get new hangers though, if yours are anything like my old one they"ll be fucked and your exhaust will sag.

Yeah i had a new hanger put on last year as it had broken. Think im going to get a powerflow one now anyway. Charlie gave me a quote of £265 fully fitted for a full stainless steel cat back with 3.5" rolled tip, Seen some vids as well and sounds spot on.

Now then lad, get those coilovers fitted and deck it

Finally got the coilovers on!

Didnt need my 25mm spacers as suggested by a few people, looks great but I would like my wheel bearings. So I will be selling my 25mm hubcentric spacers very soon, as id like to make back my £50 :dapprove: I also didn't need my camber bolts which cost me £40 from Ktec :dapprove:

Anyway, need to get my tracking done on monday, and I will bring the back down abit lower to, the height at the front is actually pretty good atm, haven't had an scrapes on any speed bumps (yet)! The ride is ermmm pretty rough but Its alot better than my 40mm springs. Overall I'm impressed, but only time shall tell.

Couple of shitty phone pics, need to give her a clean up and take some decent pictures, but you get the idea.

Cheers mate, Im going to take some decent pictures probably tomorrow, as I havent been able to give her a clean yet, she's covered in salt and much, I also need to get the back lowered a little more,.

Ahhh yeah, mine needs a good clean again, hate this weather. Yeah the back is riding a little high in comparison to the rest. The front end looks sweet as though mate.

Ok, today managed to get her cleaned up and took a few snaps, pleased with it so far, although I'm going to lower the back some more tomorrow.

Yeah bring the rear down and it will be spot on. Get some 5/10mm spacers for the rear as well, just to bring it out a bit and will be spot on.

Posted a thread on the K-Tec section on here asking about it, but it literally wont go any higher, so I gave up and left it.
 
Ktec 'stealth' it wont go any higher :dapprove:

You're not trying hard enough ;)

Mega surprised you didn't need spacers OR camber bolts! My set up must have been awfully strange... :S

Looks awesome though! How are you finding the ride etc?
You should just be able to send your camber bolts back to K-tec. I did when mine I bought the wrong ones.

Yeah I was to, im going to send back the spacers, then try and do the same with the bolts. The ride is ermm, well bouncy, but its nice, I love the cornering in it now :cool: Had no scrapes so far, so Im happy with the height, but will putting the back down tomorrow.
I may be popping down to K-Tec soon to get my exhaust sorted, but how did you get it so high?!?!? PLEASE DO TELL!

lol ok, I've seen your video of your stealth on youtube. how loud is it when the engine is started and at tickover?

haha, I dont mind. Erm its loud when you first start it up, on idle its not loud at all tbh. Very nice sounding system. Definitely get the supersport system though.

Popping down to K-Tec tomorrow to get my backbox sorted, backs going lower tonight to.

Okay, soooo, whacked the back down to the lowest setting still with the adjusters, I am very pleased with the height. Here's a quick pic of it tonight in a zee fog on my phone lol. Will get some decent photo's tomorrow.
