I am currently at 101mm (just passed legal) = crap

Ill be honest its pathetic.

You look like a clown trying to get up any drive way.

And the massivest angle over speed humps wont make you look any less gay.

There is a thred somewhere about the idea height for skylines. 150 somthing??by memory.

Maybe do a quick search.

=)

Mine sits 120mm at the lowest point (cat converter) and 130mm is the next at the front bar. I only have trouble getting into really sharp sorts of driveways where the bar scrapes, but even then taking them at an angle generally goes OK. So 90% of my driving is hassle free if that's any help?

my front bar sits at about 98mm off the deck.. it's a bit of a drama with driveways and speed bumps but it only gets driven on weekends and i choose carefully where it goes.. As a daily this would be too low for me especially in mackay lol..

Cheers Matt

bumpsteer ... pfft its not good but as hamish said coiloverds dont have much travel and the low ass height they dont move at all, + having a roll cage makes it way harder again so u definately feel it haha.

but thats what sports cars are about

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
