true true.

got a lil bit of work now, i've been doing nothing for the last week and a bit. gotta walk back up to the car to get a card with a number on it i left this mornin *sigh*

Skyricer’s need to take a lesion in lowering a car! You all have so much gap clearance between your tires and guards haha.

Example, lowered LXU55 more, and put some more preload on the springs,

30mm seal clearance, not low enough

25mm Exhaust clearance

Got the sump to sit up around 20 – 25mm

LXU55024.jpg

Front bar still looks way to high at 40mm

Paint and decent rims are overrated

Still looks like it has a lift kit :) Had it lower, but the top control arms fouled up on the strut towers and we hadn’t even let the car off the jacks!! Need to do some custom work before I go lower :)

Cant you just fit a lower front bar?... or let your tyres down :whistling:

I’ll throw on a full kit at some stage. I have rough dimensions for a kit I like, and it’s going to well and truly scrap along the ground. It’ll look awesome parked, highly impractical however.

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
