looking super nice but that exhaust is well tucked under your bumper... why is it so far back?? they usually sit out a couple of cm/inches from the bumper to expel heat, and the odd flame haha

i knoo dude its touching the bumper but just bought some powerflex exhaust hangers there to stop the vibration and at the weekend going to lower the backbox a wei bit so it isnt touching :D

its got somthing to do with the exhaust system and the SPS decat its happend to most people with this exhaust system weird like but all is good

cheers for the comments guys its just for the time been as i keep meaning to get a smaller one and relocate it

well abit peed of since i hit my car yesterday in to a curb of the stupid fucking snow again! and now my wheel looks like this very angry as i have spent ages getting it setup properly took the wheel of and no sign of damage so i am hoping it is just the tracking that needs done people on TGTT say looks like a bent lower arm :thumbsup:

steering wheel is straight and looks like this! :)

Hmmm thats strange.

The only thing I can think of is where the bottom of the coilover bolts to the hub, maybe they werent very tight and caused the strut to go out of alignment. Try slackenning off the nuts and push the top of the hub back and tighting it back up see if that makes a difference.
