    Fs: Tein Superstreet Coilovers To Suit 34 N/a

    in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)

    Posted

    Selling my coilovers that are currently installed on my N/A 34.
    Bought the set last year and they've only run ~15 Thousand km's. My car has never been taken out on the track and is only used for street driving.
    These are height and dampening adjustable.

    No knocking or weird sounds.
    Only selling because I'm going putting the stock suspension back in before i sell the car off.
    Purchased from Mercury motorsport ln Sydney last year.

    Looking for $1100ONO

    Pickup only SE Melbourne.

    You can buy the GPS systems of eBay for about 39 buck !! Good ones to, and you can track your car of your iphone! And you can set it up up underneath the dash where thiefs can't find it.

    They're heaps good, but apparently really sophisticated thieves carry jammers with them that disable the GPS trackers, i've read it somewhere in these forums, and it makes sense. Doesn't hurt to have one hidden somewhere though

    I don't think they're any more harsh.

    Have you offended a neighbour (who might be in the motor trade)?

    God i hope not, i usually enter my court in the third or fourth gear, but in the letter it does say 'report lodged by an officer of the Victorian police'?

    I'll go in for the test and let you guys know how i go with my little gasket mod.

    So i got another EPA notice in the mail, my second one in the last two months. My exhaust isn't even that loud :(

    Question being, second time around, are they any more harsh when it comes to the test? I barely passed with an 88dB(out of 90dB) last time.

    i dont think it will go with your skirts tbh

    Hmm that's what i was thinking, was keen to see if anyone else had done it haha.

    Looks like the stuff some of the guys have been using to make front lips.

    If im not mistaken it's just garage door rubber that you double sided tape or screw on.

    There is a whole thread on it.

    EDIT:

    Infact, here it is

    How big are your wheels mate?

    I've had the matte black on my wheels for about 6 months, it's great stuff.

    Only issues were: can't really clean the wheels by hand as brushes etc are too harsh, and tyre gel looks crap on plastidip!

    Bear in mind that when you change tyres it will wreck the edges - I was lazy and just went over the wheels again, however it's started to peel again off one of the fronts, so I'm tossing up on just pulling it off all 4 and redoing it.

    I've also pressure washed the crap out of the wheels every single week, it doesn't budge unless it's been 'picked at' on the edges. Even if you do a hatchet job of spraying it like me, you can blend it in easily and it tends to meld together as it dries.

    To do wheels at least again, I'd just leave them on the car, put garbage bags on the rotors and do them on the car (after cleaning with dishwashing detergent). About 4 quick sweeps over each wheel is all they really need, ended up being 2 - 2.5 cans from memory.

    Hi Mate,

    Thanks for sharing. Yes i have heard about the flange/gasket trick but i have a full turbo back exhaust with a massive muffler, so when i do that trick and have it inspected the EPA is not stupid and think that my exhaust could pass that easily. Thats what im worried about at the moment. Bloody cops man pain in the ass! I've own my car for 5 years and this is my 1st time i've got done for my exhaust =(

    Haha, no they're not stupid, but its not their business to check how its legal, as long as it is.

    to put it into perspective, my gasket(metal plate) was flimsy and when you accelerated above 3K you could hear air escaping like no tomorrow, but the tester didn't say anything!

    And i'm sorry, my mistake, the legal limit in vic is 90dB, not too sure why i typed 40 haha
