Yeh nice work Flick, they look the bomb in white with the orange! I was gonna get black with the pollished dish when i bought mine, but opted for the silver! Id take the centre caps off tho! it looks better without them........trust me!!!! Oh and a slight lowering might be nice as you said! :blink:

Yeh these style are getting around.. but ive wanted them for soooo long, since i bought the car 10 months ago so Im reallly happy with them. Glad to finally have decent rims to set the car off. Not many style rims in white with dish to choose from, thats probly why so many of these sets getting around now. They really suit bright coloured cars though, black or chrome just wouldnt suit, in any style.

umm i got 18's, 225/40 all round, was going to go 235/40 on the rear but joe at wheelworx said they wouldve stuck out a little more than they do now.

Will get it lowered just a little in a week or 2, cant lower it too much or i wont get it in my driveway at home lol.

Nathan - slide air? Its auto :P lol

Yeah pat i got your pm, ill reply soon :) and yep, ill be out friday at csa meet spot, gotta show em off a bit :P

Yeah wide package. 8.5 front and 9.5 rear also.

Im surprised the 225's on the rear look pretty good, they look really wide from behind.. Any wider tyre and they would stick out the guard alot. As it is, they stick out a little, which ive been defected for in the past, so im trying to avoid that lol.

I guess they would fit differently on your 33 compared to my 32 though? My old rims sat out on my 32, but were perfect on a 33.

    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home  
    • 1.05 you’ve gotta let it breath 
    • You have to continuously fill it to avoid dry running. Personally the transmissions I've serviced have never been bad enough to justify doing this because it is definitely a pretty complicated and somewhat risky procedure compared to simply draining the pan, measuring what came out, then refilling with the exact same amount.
