sorry to say it, but when you say "clicks" or "notches" that tends to mean the tortion (sp?) bar has been lowered incorrectly, tends to mean that the trailing arms have been knocked off rotated through a few "notches/clicks" and put back on, This way can cause play in the beam prematurely and impare handelling.... I'd check for this now rather than later if i could suggest it.

The better way would have been to remove the torsion bars, raise the trailing arm to the desired hight (can set it to whatever you please, not limited to clicks/notches) and replace the torsion bars.

You dont get the gash arse end down look this way...


either way, nice example you have there, will be interesting to keep watching, as i've done a few vts/gti conversions into xsi's/s1 rallyes so

keep up the good work

i totally agree with the "click method" being a really bad way of lowering the back. Itll destroy the bearings on the rear beam within weeks mate.
