Yep. Shouldn't affect performance. As soon as I'm done with my liftgate, the car's getting jacked up and the rings removed. I'll drop the front maybe another 1/2" too. After all, I'm going to a car show (Stance East) in Moncton, NB on Saturday. Not a big fan of super dropped cars or crazy camber, but it should be a fun show nonetheless.

I'm with you there. Fun to connect with people in all aspects of car culture, even if it's not my cup of tea.

For sure. I was cruising out of Saint John yesterday and was passed by a right hand drive Supra Turbo. I'm guessing around a 2006. The car looked very tastefully 'stanced'. I'm so hoping that the car is going to be at the show on Saturday.

Fingers crossed! I'm hoping for one of your usually detailed posts --but in the photo section, after the meet!
