John sanders dve between harbourne at and selby st north, head west along that stretch of road in the rh lane with a kitted or low enough car and wait for the bottom out then there's another heading north along harbourne st inthe left lane as your coming up to the Audi dealer, it drops down then bang, straight back up and finally if you're quick enough to get the green light and want to live the fast and furious moment you can sing thru the lights at Hepburn and wanneroo heading west, mate hit that in his vl too quick once and a spring dropped out

aaand as you can tell by my sig, i now have coilovers in front and rear, 5 stud up front and a fresh coat of flat black for the stockies, she dardy cop now

mmm uras done the right way http://www.driftinjapan.com/uploaded_image...firo-710209.jpg haha rc fun http://www.sflrcdrift.com/images/news/swpcefiro5.jpg a not too bad version of a wonder setup http://www.zerotohundred.com/newforums/att...o-20front-a.jpg and i very much liked this for a while, something about the rear wing http://www.insurance-group.net/products/di...a31cef_f300.jpg http://www.insurance-group.net/products/di...a31cef_r300.jpg

yeah haha once i made the holes bigger using a dye grinder i was alright, the bases arent interchangable on my coillies as for banjo bolts yeah i can suggest the not so proper way, still works good, just hope it doesnt take a hard enuf knock to loosen the banjo

i could sworn i was driving beside this on the freeway last weekend, the reversing camera rings a bell sorry to hear dude

yeah i was told to keep an eye out for kazama rod ends as they have a longer thread barrel on them

konect, theyre 225/45s haha yea stretched to shithouse dani, only wide body parts i know of are front overfenders or DIY with some bolt on flares

mmm if you want, try get ahold of sum s14 hubs, without calipers and rotors as all your 33 shit will slip on, will mean youll have to redrill the holes out on the base of your coilovers and use s14 bolts, worked a treat on mine, and did you say you were fitting just the 33 booster or the master cylinder too? coz you'll need a 32 gtst bm44 master for the bigger brakes or you'll get nice lengthy travel in your foot pedal, not a nice feeling when you gota stop quick haha

mmm i had wonder kit, sold that, no i have uras/monkey warehouse, wonder was too chunky for my liking and if you wish to keep your ride height under wraps with the popo youre gonna need 18's to keep it up off the ground, unless you decide to to go autech

yeah dard 18x11 +0

coz im using s14 hubs i need s14 lca's, the lenth if the ball joint is longer on the s14 arms an has to be that length so u can get the nut all the way tight the nugget who sold me this setup originally had stocker ceffy arms dangerously hanging from the hubs, apparently i can get longer rod ends, looking at available options

k ive just finished fitting 5 stud off my black ceffy onto my white and had to fit another set of s14 lca's coz my old ones were bent from crash, after removing old arms i noticed the s14 ones i had purchased wernt quite the same as the ones off my old car, i fit them anyway only to find theres a heap more wheel track and i can adjust more neutral toe into the factory tie rods as the joints nearly fall off, definite no no, anyway around this without using extra lock spacers or changing my whole rack? ive read that s14 tie rods cant be used as the threads are different, but i could be wrong, any help would be smashing cheers

Coz I've already spent enough money in s14 shit so it's stayin that way hahaha

Ohhhh k where from an how much for the silkies very interested, sept the bottom part of the coilover needs to be different as I have s14 hubs

Mmm was thinkin wide body but then bolt on flares with the holes covered up would do the trick keep it cheap as I can hahah

waaay to stretchy for my driving after sum magic polish steam roller spec

I figure with black being the future colour in mind for my car then these will stay chrome unless they're shitty lookin when they arrive, yeah the rears have 225/45's squeezed on
