Here's some random pictures that were snapped at Arroyo Seco Raceway in New Mexico.
Also have new street wheels, 17x8 Enkei Evo 8 stockers. Ended up being cheaper than buying new tires for the 19" wheels.

Most recent pic of my car. Probably swapping wheels back to single piece and raising it a bit soon, have the "go-fast" bug again!

hey tilt, in regards to adjusting the rear the Powertrix how to videos don't match up exactly. Do you have some good solid instructions for us? I didn't put a lot of effort into searching if this is already covered elsewhere / earlier... a pointer in the right direction would be appreciated!

Adjusting the rears is almost the same as the fronts, except you have to loosen the spring perches since they move with the height adjustment as well. Get the height set then adjust the spring perches.

Shell - Nice!! Any more shots?

Holy-flush-wheels Rigo, looks crazy =0

Tomorrow I've actually got a meeting set up with Charles from Powertrix. I'll be sure to bring up creating a video (among some other topics) - this would really be a great idea!

As always, if anyone has any recommendations to make the PT coilovers a better product, never hesitate to drop me a PM!
