Thanks Dyl I'd like to go a fraction lower but the rears are maxed out, I might get the lower springs like Jig runs in his but that'll be down the line! I also want to get the CH refurb'd as they're starting to look a bit tired.

New carrier bolts and pads are ordered and should be in tomorrow, looks like I'll have the car back for the weekend.

Also,

had a set of these rock up today...



Verdict motorsport shifter plate bushings, I'm interested to see how they perform over the stock rubber units.

I have 2 grille inserts, one closed and one open. If I can, I usually put the closed unit in for piece of mind. Having said that, I have driven through some extensive storms on the motorway with the open grille insert and the car has run fine... The filter is oiled, so it'll stop a fair amount of water droplets.

You can always get a filter sock for extra piece of mind too if you want.

Unless you plan on going snorkling, you'll be fine

Small update;

Fitted the Verdict Motorsport shift plate bushings on the weekend. I have to say, I'm absolutely blown away how much they improve the feel over stock. Shifting feels a lot firmer & smoother without the clunkiness of have a short shift kit fitted. Very impressed with the $40 addition..

On another note, switched the Coil covers over from red to blue.. I think it finishes off the bay nicely

Excuse they horrid instagram pics :p

Thanks mate

If you get a set, let me know.. Will be happy to lend a hand on install.

Not sure about those ones mate, not even sure that there is an aftermarket product of them?

Nice Corey, your intake makes the engine compartment look nice and un cluttered with the big old air box gone, never really noticed before.

Hey Matty,

Yeah, it's quite amazing how much tupperware gets removed when fitting an aftermarket intake :p

How've you been mate?

[robbie]

Do you know if it is still possible to get OEM slotted MKIV R32 rotors Corey?

Blue coil pack covers look great. Well done mate.
