Your Caddy looks great dumped, but you do need bigger wheels

Thanks mate. Yeah so everyone tells me...

[Jarred]

Looks pretty good mate!

Get this chipped and come for a hoon down the black spur with us!!

Really though, do it.

As for wheels. I like sleepers, that's just me. The colour coding could be a bit too much red, I agree, although, with 17's it probably would look good with colour coded bumpers. I wouldn't be in any hurry to do it..

Haha, it's a date! Try to keep up if you can..

I like the wheels even if they are only 15s. Rides good and looks good enough. I'll only update the wheels if something comes along for the right price that i really like.

Very nice work Preen.

Good write up too! Another KW happy customer!

To color code, or not to. The choice is your's.

Wheel's, well that's personal preference & also what the car's purpose is intended for taken into consideration.

Thanks Tim.

More people should listen to you. IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT PAINT AND BIG WHEELS GUYS!

I may colour code at some stage, when/if i do i'll get the bonnet resprayed etc and get paint protection put on it. It's getting stone chipped like a bitch!

Wheels, well they can wait for the moment. Wouldn't go any bigger than 17s or you lose all practicality.

Verdict from the boys at work, and everyone that came up to the workshop this arvo....



Everyone reckons the Caddy looks great now. Very happy. I might drop it further for DOTVW.

you better

[Preen59]

you better

Haha, yeah it's a given.

The worst thing about driving a car that you like looking at is that you can't see it when you're driving it..

I've been getting some serious looks from people as i go past. Had 2 R31 skyline enthusiasts have a big stare last night.

love it man, good job old chap!

Hi guys, this is my first ever post; please be gentle

That fantastic looking(!) orange caddy at the beginning of this thread belongs to me. i thought i was the only mad man to want to fit coilovers in a caddy.

Preen59 i think your caddy looks great, seem to sit even lower than mine and sounds like it might ride a little better. i agree with you on the handling, the thing is sensational! would be interesting to compare the two

Cheers

Sorry for the quick hi-jack preeny, but vince were you at croydon maccas at about 9 30pm two fridays ago? I swear I saw the same caddy out of the pics from the nats, and i wondered if you were coming on the meet or not...you popped into the shop quickly and pissed off quickly hehe

Hey Vince, welcome to the forum mate!

I saw your Caddy at the Nats and i said, "See, that's how i want mine to look!" Yours is very nice.

Mine's pretty damn low, but with the smaller wheels it suits it. Yours looks great at it's height with the wheels on it.

It would be interesting to compare. Although i think mine probably rides better due to the rear spring not being reset, i'm pretty sure that my setup would have been more expensive, though.

Thanks for the kind comment.
