well I bought the car last Oct, great solid car with 75k from original owner bone stock (sorry Auto) My first thought's were as comuter with the potential of offering it to my daughter as a bait dangler to help try motivate her I.E graduation, behavior,etc. sorry to say things didn't work out to well so lately iv'e been tinkering with it. I finally got the 00'gc8 strut/spring combo on today.
other tidbits:
tint 22%
wrx wheels
wrx pod/boost gauge
side markers painted night shade
next:
jdm awic
some type of fog that fits perfect

What color did you paint the WRX wheels? Those look really nice!
The blacked out markers are sweet, huh? I did mine a long time ago, and I love it. It's a lot less distracting.
How much clearance do you have between the tire and the strut now with the GC8 suspension? I've got about 1 or 2 centimeters with the stock struts and my WRX wheels/tires. Your car looks exactly as low as mine does, did your suspension combo lower the car any?

92 Le-Turbo-SS, you could always give that car to me. I'll behave. I've already graduated (H.S.) and it'll motivate me to finish college.

Duplicolor wheel paint in a rattle can, its the darker metalic they offer. I was going to originally have them powder coated but after I bead blasted them at work I didn't have the patience, and they actually look good up close.
I think I got the side marker idea from you.
ya know I really didn't even look at the clearance that closely but I'll look soon, I can tell you I took a private spirited autocross session behind the local grocery store parking lots looking for dumpsters to dispose of my old struts LOL..... and to test it out and had no issues at all. The ride is perfectly firm and surprisingly compliant . I would guess it dropped it at least a 1 1/2

1.5" drop!? Damn! You've got the same amount of wheel-gap that I've got. I wonder if my struts were replaced with GC8 struts by the previous owner.
