      • I'm sure there is a empty one of these floating around at work. Did you follow a DIY?
        Any sound differences or performance gains/losses (head spins, too much talking)

        Lowered the front of my car over a inch and slapped the stockies on, rake much
        Front two BBS had tyres fitted and balanced (one was all over the joint).

        Hopefully be fitting tonight, and shooting some quick pics on saturday. AT LAST!! only 5months after buying them

          • expensive...?
            How they looking?

            BBS are on. Rear is wound up as my drivers side arch is pushed in further then the other and i dont think it'll clear over bumps. Hopefully not for to much longer

            • Price on link..they are also ebay sellers.

              I think Treza360 had the same ones on his car.

              Work well as LED projects 180 degee light so the whole reflector lights up like the normal bulb does.

              BBS's look great! Gonna be a biotch to keep clean though!

                      • 2.3 60's, no wheelspin.
                        could have probably gotten it down another couple of tenths, but didnt see the point with the low mph it wouldnt have gotten into 14's anyway

                        • haha no DIY, I did it myself.

                          I think it feels a bit more responsive and lively. Sounds good to, I will try and get a vid, not so loud though because my exhaust is not resonated so thats pretty loud but it adds to the overall noise

                          Of course I wasn't drinking officer, pops bonnet A-huh EVIDANCE !!!

                          • my 42 draft design shifter cable bushings arrived today.
                            i'm hoping it will improve my gear changes because they're getting very notchy.
                            It's probably a mechanical problem with my gearbox, but thought this was worth a shot before considering a gearbox refurb!
                            Sometimes i just can't select 1st gear when stopped, and i need to release the clutch slightly so that it gets things moving.
                            I was thinking this was the synchro, but today the same thing happend on reverse, and there is no synchro on reverse... so maybe it's the selector fork??

                                These won't improve notchiness, if anything you'll feel it more, as the shifter's better connected to the gearbox now.

                                Try new fluid - Redline MTL or Shockproof Lightweight.
