It was very educational and very interesting to see the abilities of the STAR DAS system as Shardul worked his laptop and the menus.

Thanks so much! I am very pleased.

Is this 100% STAR or are you also running washers in the front? If this is only STAR, is this the most aggressive drop or could you go lower? Looks great!

Thanks,
Todd

Todd it is STAR Plus washers. With STAR the front can only to lowered a little, the back can be lowered a lot more with star.

Thanks Shardul. With factory wheels/tires, I think that drop looks perfect.

Actually, with a Brit and an Aussie parking next to each other, both of us canceled each other out as we were both driving on the wrong side of the road and the steering wheel was also on the wrong side.

I think you'll find if you flip the photo so the steering wheels are on the right, we are perfectly parked....
