    Yeah thats a point but Im very passionate about my car and I think the next buyer will see that I know exactly what has been done etc, I'm also a store manager for autobarn so I'm hoping that helps too lol

    My spark plugs arrived today, rrp $29.99 The cars done 82500 kms but I'm still not sure if it's going to feel much different???

    Well I did do my own service
    Oil was easy once I had a 3 claw oil filter remover! I thought the oil cartridge was high on the side of the block like most cars so it was a relief to see it on the front of the sump
    I also installed new slotted rotors and pads, as well as popped in Kingsprings all round

    It drives great with the springs, no more boat like feeling at take off and nose dives under braking!

    How do you think it looks lower?
