no he thinks that D1R's are tits

Baahahahaha gold!

Nah just D1R fanboy.

Also, my mate recently bought some Varrstoens... And from order to delivery it all happened quite smoothly and quickly from what I could tell... not sure who he went through though, so possibly not actually Varrstoen but a dealer... So I dunno about custom values... But otherwise can ask who he went through?

Sweet as, if you could ask your mate who he went through that'd be awesome. Might be easier to get an answer from a dealer who has direct line access to Varrstoen :cheers:

I have a simple formula flow-chart that I employ when it comes to these things:

Does it have more than 4 legs? ------> (YES) ------> Does it have more than 2 eyes -------> (YES) ---------> Does it pay rent ------> (NO) ------> Kill it.

I think you should join my class, Mr. Turbodragon

Ahhh shieeett. I'm crazy keen on the BBS look though. Trying to replicate the ol' 33 with BBS haha

I've got 20s now and even though it's a bit rough, still not too bad. Maybe to do with tyre profile cos my VE came standard with 19s so on 20s, still a fair bit of meat on the tyres (kinda lol).

I messaged Varrstoen asking if they would do the TE37 (2.2 I think they are) in 20" for me but ahven't got a response yet. If they did, I'd be ALL over it. But until then, still keen on the BBS LMs. Otherwise, it's back to Lenso D1Rs or some generic concave design :(

Mine came with 19s too, what I did was get some fatter side walls (e.g 245/40/19 rather than 245/35/19) gives it the fat look and better traction / ride hugggee difference i felt

Depends, what's involved? Haha

I'll keep that in mind, didn't think to fatten up the sidewall profile. I guess the Varrstoens are still on the table then hahaha

camel spiders have no venom aaaaaron. phew.

however. they have secrete a painkilling like fluid into your skin when they bite you so you cant feel it. (usually when you are a sleep) the females then proceed to lay eggs within the bite. as the babys hatch they eat the way out of the skin leaving a hell of a mess.

oh desert camel spiders, can aslo jump about 6 feet long and about 4 feet high.

i have personally seen a soldier chased down a run way by one.

but hey! they dont have venom buddy!

my varrstoens 19s with 245/40/19 275/35/19 (275/35 is same diameter as the 245/40, so I didn't have any funny looks or traction control issues) these are nt05s btw:

Looks good mate! Any side on pics? There was a guy with a E1 HSV clubby with varrstoens and they looked mint! Apparently was a lot fo work to get them to fit but not sure if he was talking shit jsut to stop people from copying him though haha I'll try find a pic

    • Bit of a late reply here as me and my wife have been really busy with new born twins. I finally got these issues fixed and it was something really stupid that caused all of this 🤦‍♂️... After alot of mucking around with trying to figure out what is causing these issues, I back probed one of the R35 coils on the power 12v supply, with the engine running it got 25v! And I thought, hang on..., this isn't normal. Measured my battery with the engine running to check for over charge from the alternator and it wasn't that. So then I dissconnected the R35 PRP coil harness and backprobed the power supply on the engine loom where the ignition coil harness connects, with the key on ignition (engine off) it measured 30v! So then I had to trace where that high voltage was coming from and it lead me to the brown relay "ECM & IGN coil relay" inside the cabin next to the ECU on the passanger wall. This relay feeds power to the ECM and ignition coils. Tried swapping it with another same relay. nah still 30v.. coming from the 2 green/white wires in the brown relay. So then I set my multi meter to the beep continuity mode and probed every fuse on the fuse box inside the cabin to try and find this high voltage power source. Wasn't any of the fuses inside the cabin. Then probed all the fuses in the engine bay and BAM, got my power source that was a 10AMP fuse called "ENG CONT". Pulled the fuse out, and what do you know... it was blown. 🤦‍♂️  So then I quickly replaced it with a new 10AMP fuse, started the car and yeah haha [insert extreme face palm]... The RPM blimping thing went away, car idles smoothly now like what it was before. I swear! I checked all my fuses with my test light twice before I created this forum thread. I think, maybe because one side of that faulty 10A fuse lit up on my test light, I must have thought it was still ok and not blown. But now I know to have both sides light up on the test light when checking fuses... I hate diagnosing electricals.... I'd take mechanical problems over electrical problems any day🤣. Drove the car around my suburb with the engine up to operating temp and it runs fine like before. However, I notice that my fuel pressure is still at 49psi. So I'm thinking this must be normal for my system as I've upgraded the stock fuel pump to a Walbro 255L/h with a constant 12v mod.  But anyway, I'm just glad to have my daily back on the road! Thanks everyone for the replies on this thread, all sorted now! One thing I want to ask you tuner guys, my base fuel pressure on the haltech main settings are set to 43.5psi from default (my tuner must have not checked the fuel pressure maybe when tuning my car?). Do I set it to what it actually is idling on at 49psi? Or just leave it ("if it aint broke, don't fix it/leave it")?  
    • The max they would go for me is 50.
    • That cannot have been a fun set of drilling. The stock "baffle" looks identical to rb26, I just cut fuel cell foam to fit the full length under the baffle.
    • I understand your sarcastic exasperation. But to be fair - the baffles do indeed fit OEM cam covers. They did omit to say that you need to do a bunch of stuff. But they do fit them.
