My FTO Lowered

Postby Mitsubishi-Mental » Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:23 am

Well lads,

Car came off the ramps and out the rollers again today with new CV joints cheers Gerry :smt023

2 New front Shocks big thanks to mivecmad27

and a new set of Tein Lowering springs from Camskill

I'll put pics up of her before being lowered and after for people to compare for future purposes,
I'm happy with the outcome, of course Tein said it was a 49mm drop on the front but that was on a DE3A FTO, as mine is a GS its not quite as much of a drop

Handling is improved as well as the appearance of the car, its new tyres on tomorrow and she'll be ready for saturday after a wax :smt023

Nice job, give it a week or two of driving to settle and get 4 wheel alignment carried out.

'Dress up Master' - sounds a drag queen!

+1 on the Alpine sticker...
