Need moar low!
A few pics after lowering the car some more. I think it has still has to settle a little. The car was in the garage today to get the wheels checked for balancing and leaking air. I have really bad wheel wobble above 50mph but the wheel alignment is way out, so hopefully that explains that. Two wheels are leaking air at the base of the valve. New kosei spec narrow valves are only £14 for 4 on ebay.
Needing a wash again.

Re: Merlin's 4G Track Lude
Thanks! Its all for nothing if she doesn't drive right. I'm praying that my wheel alignment tomorrow sorts everything out
Just under two weeks till my track day so there is still time to sort anything that needs attention.

Re: Merlin's 4G Track Lude
It was the front left. It had to be dismantled, fooked bits replaced, and built back up. Not a huge deal as there is very little of the original car left so its relatively easy to work on. I think the steering, dash and seats are the only things on the whole car to remain from when it came out of the factory. The engine and gerbox was replaced by someone else and I have done everythign else.
