That looks pretty good actually! :)

I havent had any trouble too much with clearance, but if it quite a steep hill or something like that i try to go on a real big angle!

MissR34, thats coz ur car is not lowered :( or is it??

at stock height but when i was at murray bridge i went down a drive way that was quite steep and scraped underneath :rolleyes: and even going out of my mums drive way (thats not even a steep one) if im not a an angle i will scrape cause i did it once!

nicely done. yeah bonnet is a good idea maybe black or part black to match the lip. and perhaps do something about the orange blinkers aswell :thumbsup:

those rims CE28's??

do 18's raise the car a little? relative to riding on 17's?

i've got 110mm clearance... have to be very careful. Angled attack is my friend :thumbsup:

helps to have a plastic injected moulded bar, as opposed to fibreglass. Mine would definitely have cracked by now.

got flex? :rolleyes:

8" and 9" respectively. More pics and info in my blog: Work Emotion XD9

Hi Bro

Nice informative Blog plus the Impul front bar so it's time to get the side & rear to match. The only way to go down any steep ram is to take the most left then turn right on full lock so once u feel you tyre touching the base level then turn left again to lift the front (fingers crossed). Im surprised by the amount of steep rams i could go through in shopping mall parking. Even huge speed hump i could steer straight (though sub-conciously will do a turn left & right also).

Anyway we all learn it somehow to drive it. Cheers!

    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
    • Don't do what I did, use a 300000km old housing with billet gears. The old pump probably was clearanced with saw dust, Edward Lee's special engine treatment sauce and a good odo wind back. I had oil pressure issues, then replaces pump with new housing, new billet gears and 2x track day later binned a motor due to other oil related issues due to a previous engine builder. Long story short, buy a M2 or 3 or 4 N55/S55/S58 and enjoy life.
    • Yeah. "New pump" does not have to mean "massive pump".
    • Well, can you still get an OEM pump, and by the time you're buying a Nismo/N1 etc, just buy another aftermarket pump. It's better to have the pump able to flow more if its needed, than for your pressure to drop off. At any point in time, you're replacing the oil pump in a rebuild. Aftermarket pumps are likely going to be a better economical choice, and they don't have any negatives, even if they can flow more.   Also, when you're saying "replace the pump gears" are you meaning leave a 25+ year old housing in the engine with unknown wear, and just put new gears in? As that sounds silly to me, especially if you do have that minute amount of wear, that means your new pump gears now have a little bit more clearance beside them, which means, whelp, you may not get to build a lot of oil pressure or make a lot of flow.
