Yup 5x100 8j and et35. I gave them to gav to put on his s3 but he might be convinced to sell them? -
Hey mate, I feel honered that you read the whe thread haha. Cheers on the kind words, it still has a little way to go but it's nearly where I want it to be. The turbo is rated for 400hp at the crank so if I can get close to that I'll be stoked. Still on the base tune as drivetrain issues are holding me back at the moment still mighty fun on the base tune
dunno if I'll be at power cruise but if you're around Brissy you're more than welcome to come for a spin. As for doing this in 5 days.... I guess you could if you had all parts, tools, the expertise and nothing went wrong but something always goes wrong lol
And just because I'm a whore her it is chillin out side my mates house on the weekend

So car's been off the road for a few weeks because of a broken axle. Bought an aftermarket one from the states and it was worse than the stock broken one!!! So Jmac sorted me out a rebuilt oem one and car is up and driving again
Also got some presents in the mail yesterday. Anni rear valance and hatch wing

So installed the kw's on Sunday with the help of Shane (he did most of the work) and all was sweet, had the stance I wanted and no sway bar issues
until tonight when dropping my old suspension off I notice a slight noise coming from the front end that got progressively worse. I thought it may be the springs settling and causing the drive shaft but then the steering wheel starting shaking. So I pulled over and I have massive positive camber on front passenger wheel, not good. Starting freaking out that we had forgotten to tighten something or the shock had bent, then I notice 3 of my 5 wheel bolts were missing! triple check wheel bolts people! then I realise I have the wrong size ratchet for the special wheel bolt key so I couldn't do anything. Luckily JustCruisn who had just bought my suspension came to my rescue with tools. i feel like such an idiot, at least I can blame the hangover for the wheel bolts...
Smoking kills btw

Yeah thought about the spacers and no rubber strip but with these I can put them pretty much over the turbo to let the heat out, plus I think they look pretty tough. Lakeside was really fun, I was taking it very easy but car felt very composed, the rsb really killed the under steer it used to have turning into corners, still scrubs wide under power though, need a diff lolOriginally posted by team_v View PostLeave a comment:
