scandyflick Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 The fact he had an airbag wheel as standard and he removed it is reason enough bingo. however, im tempted to the same, just so i can solid mount mt seat to the floor and drop myself 2 or 3 inches, and having a removable wheel is really the only way to do that and still be able to get in and out.

writeoff Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 writeoff can attest that when i was going to moonta last year, we'd hit a dip and my entire exhaust would bottom out on the tarmac and shoot a tonne of sparks, so much so that it ripped apart one of the welds on my muffler True but the exhaust system wasn't fitted correctly back then and your car was fully loaded with food, drinks, fishing equipment and ~260kgs of man-flesh. Speed humps just need to be taken slowly and at an angle. Same with driveways. Personally I think your Bilsteins are fine and you could save your $ but I haven't driven the car in a long time and never did as a daily.

Luke_ENR34 Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 Non Airbag wheel. Nardi wheel. He said if i had a momo or Isotta i would be fine, even tho they have no air bag Dion, will u be down towards the city any day soon? would be great if i could borrow the light. Should only take a couple of nights after work to finish it all. Thanks.

Personally I think your Bilsteins are fine and you could save your $ but I haven't driven the car in a long time and never did as a daily. i suspect in the 2 years that theyve worn - the exhaust was fitted properly - this was back when I still had the 3.5" kakimoto that was on it when i bought it off you. because of that, i switched to a twin pipe junbl sidebyside cannon setup, which wasnt fitting correctly on the trip to another place, but I dont think you were there for that - inspite of the junbl's not being mounted correctly, they still scraped less than that kakimoto (the muffler was massive)... and even tho theyre now mounted correctly, I still get scrapage around the side street speed humps... thats even slowing down to 10kph... ill see what waynes teins are like and if I have to, start saving up for nismos that scandy suggested ... however I suspect because the suspension is nismo, it'll cost me 2 kidneys to afford.. -D Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/188416-the-sa-wasteland/page/1791/#findComment-4872660 Share on other sites More sharing options...
