New wheels are on! Pretty happy with the fitment, however the swift springs now don't give it *quite* enough drop.

Its a good trade of looks and practicality, and it's at a legal height. I'm not interested in coilovers so I'll probably just leave it as is. Maybe try some Eibachs...

Looks like someone is *keeping* their car ;) Looks excellent, and good luck with your V36 Julian :)

I _finally_ could be bothered to take a decent photo of my stock standard 370GT Crossover (Infiniti EX37)... This was the first time I have tried using a softbox to shoot a car and although I only had 5 minutes to get the shot I think it worked out well... There was also some messy photoshopping to get rid of the lines from where I was moving the softbox. I'll do a cleaner one the next time the car is clean and the night is clear...

[edit - ergh - realised I didn't even clean the wheels or tyres. Ugh. Definitely re-doing this in the weekend if the weather is clear]

Last Slowlife meet last week. De-stickered whole car and just running it clean now. I think it looks better. This is how it currently sits and is the best picture i have at the moment.

are those koyas? what are the specs?

Yeah man I own Chef, Thanks fellas, um this fitment is for flush fitment running exactly with the side panels with 0 rolling of guards. Tyres had to be stretched to keep it legal under body. Koya SF06 20"s all around 9.5 ET +30 fronts and 10.5 ET +37 rears.

Small update on the Vtard. Pretty happy with this beast.....finished fasted nissan on its first sprint on the long circuit on Eastern Creek....and was on its way to 15th outright(2:09 on the long track) but the front hub failed. Will be putting it in Superlap div 2 next year after I spend the next 9 months fine tuning suspension and brakes. Still needs to go on a diet as its 1,520kgs atm.

Cracked 270RWK and 910NM's at its last tunes on e85.

Aiming for a 1:39 on the normal track.....should be capable of a 1:43 as is atm.

P.S. The rear wheels are getting resprayed back to silver because fugly.

    • Surely the cam timing is set to something stupid at low RPM?
    • Hi guys, Sorry to butt in and take it slightly off course, although still on the VCAM subject.  I had VCAM put into my Tomei 2.8 bottom end and I struggle to take off because the engine has very little torque caused by VERY low dynamic compression at 60psi. But once off the mark and especially on boost, the engine rev happily all the way to 8000rpm and makes 630hp at 20psi of boost on E85 at the rear hubs. Has anyone had any similar experience or any suggestions on what might cause this low compression at low rpm? I am in the process of converting it into a 8hp transmission and with this low torque, the engine would not even stay running until the throttle is opened to more than 30% and then I loose all vacuum. 
    • Last year I got a set of MCA street coilovers for my turbo Forester after my son hitting a concrete gutter/wall on a small bridge causing the whole drivers side suspension to get bent because the rain just made the car slide out I love them, I think they were $2400. even had a hiccup of have the wrong hub configuration (my fault) so got onto MCA and they sent the correct shock ends overnight parts from QLD, for free!  I was very impressed with their customer service and quality of the product  
    • They've had some weird failures on their brake actuators. One of them was because they added some kind of lubricant to the factory fill brake fluid that aftermarket brake fluid didn't have so it would affect the seals. Another was just mysterious, probably internal corrosion or something eating away at Prius brake actuators. Parts alone for those are a few thousand USD so not a cheap fix.
