  1. ahh. that explains it. cheers
  2. What is the speed limiter on M35 set at? I got mine up to 180 the other day no worries. Not sure if would keep going but showed no signs of doing so. Will have to give it another go....
  3. Pads came today. So 2 business days. Not bad
  4. How much would this suspension drop an ARX? Are there any other details you know like spring rates, how many kms they have done? Cheers
  5. Cool. I haven't seen that before now. It looks like all the spots are taken now. I might come check it out, would love to see what sort of increases come from the dump pipe and exhaust.
  6. Are they in Adelaide?
  7. 12.8l/100km on the 100 RON. As opposed to the 12.5 on 95. However, no highway driving was done on this tank. Have Shell 98 in now.
  8. Got my RDA slotted rotors today. I Ordered them over the phone from GSL Rallysport (in QLD) and they rocked up at my office (in Adelaide) a couple of hours later! I have never heard of delivery so fast. I have had meals at Restaurants take longer than that! Unbelievable!!!!! Just waiting for the HPX pads now. Can't wait to get them in I was thinking of painting my calipers pink. will that be cool?
  9. Check http://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCalculator.asp 235 is a rare width I think. 245 is more common.
  10. That is a very VERY nice looking M35. Nice work!
  11. Yeah might be placebo, but as you say, who cares!
  12. Yeah I haven't had the car long and couldn't get 98 the first time I filled up. 95 seemed OK though, but may be why I saw less than impressive economy figures? I will def. go the 100 or 98 in future, try out a few to see what is best.
  13. Will the AXIS bar fit an ARX? I am pretty sure it will, but having a silver car means I will need to get it and the guards painted. Might look a bit shit with shiny smooth front bar and textured guards, side skirts and rear bar?
  14. I have heated seats (working) but rear fog lights are disconnected as part of compliance.
  15. The 100 RON I am running at the moment seems to have improved power over standard premium 95. It contains ethanol (10% I think). I will find out economy at end of tank.
  16. So I guess there are mixed results..... A few have seen improved economy after installing dump pipe.
  17. Terrible!!!!!!!!!!!
  18. Just filled up. Got 12.3 litres per 100km. Not too bad I guess? Filled up with that 100 RON from United Petrol Station on Torrens Rd, Pennington (SA), anyone else used that?
  19. So it is possible then... How would you rate the stiffness and ride height range compared to standard ARX?
  20. Hey Jetreck, what suspension are you running if you don't have BC's?
  21. WTF. Man, thats awesome economy! I have 550km on the ODO and the light has just come on... and this tank includes a trip down the coast on highways. I find out l/100km tomorrow when I fill up. Seems pretty shit, even if I get 75 litres in, it will still be around 13.5 L/100km
  22. Hey Mark, what size rims are you running, are they 22's? Looks awesome!
  23. Hey Mark, what size rims are you running? Looks awesome!
  24. Hi all, For anyone who has BCs on an ARX, how would you rate the height and firmness. Input from others with BCs would also be appreciated. A) Ride height adjustable range on a scale of 1-10 (If the standard ARX height is a 10 and completely dumped on its arse is a 1). eg 2-8, 4-10 etc. B) Firmness/ softness on a scale of 1-10 (if standard suspension is a soft 2 or 3?). This would definitely help I think for people like myself who want to get coilovers but are worried about sacrifices to comfort and ride quality. Cheers
  25. Atmospheric air is about 78% Nitrogen, 20% Oxygen and the rest made up of CO2 and a mixture of other gases. Nitrogen (N2) molecules are slightly larger than Oxygen (O2) molecules. So the O2 passes through the rubber faster than N2. If you have a leak it makes no difference though. Some light reading for those who are interested: www.getnitrogen.org/pdf/graham.pdf
