if you do a search for the pics from the Stone Mountain / Helen meet about 2 months ago... that Cosworth posted..theres a pic of my ITR right next to Len (ILOVERACING) ITR..you can see the difference in the stance.

Or go to my web site and look at the pics of my car...then do a search of the pics I just posted of when I hit a deer...

So I take it that the first Yellow ITR has the lowdown and the second one has stock suspension?

it is noticeable, but it's not meant to really lower the car that much...

It only lowers it about .75 of an inch. Those pics dont really show it from a
good angle...but when you are standing beside my R and a stock R its a noticeable
difference.

perfect drop.

it really makes the car look a lot better, and handle a lot better from what i hear.

not too much, just right!

i really envy tj... his car makes mine look like a moon buggy when they're next to each other.

Not to mention that TJ's car is about 1-1.5 sec quicker in 45sec autoX course. (granted he has JDM header + lightened flywheel also.)

Here are my before and after pics. Sorry they are kind of small, and it might be a little dark, so you'll have to download them and photochop them and adjust the gamma.

Completely stock:



One stock wheel with one Mugen (This one really shows how much wheel gap there was):


The day before installing the lowdowns:


The day right after installing the lowdowns: (they don't really settle until after a couple days)


Here are the photo albums with my hokey measurements.
