Lowered my GTO, what do you think?
Decided to lower my GTO and replace my full suspension so it handles nice. Everything cost $1300 and I installed the parts on a lift with air tools.
Part List: (Australian company for Holden)
Lovells Eliminator 3/4" drop kit front & rear springs
Lovells Shocks
Lovells Struts
Lovells Radius Rod Bushings
Lovells Strut Mounts/Bearings
Here are a few pics:

Not sure if your suspension has settled, but it looks like you have some reverse rack going on. Any better pics?

Looks good. I just got new struts/springs for my car and lowered it slightly. Huge difference in performance and no more ugly wheel gap.
