I drive past Plympton alot. Hope that wasn't me....what kind of rims and headlights??

I haven't seen any black Coupes like mine down my end of town.

Driving into the city I see V's a fair amount but it is the first V I have seen in my area of Plympton.

It had a black grill with an infinity badge, black rims and aftermarket headlights.

The only badge on the back was Skyline, looked like it had been modified a bit to look like a sleeper.

If it was you, please :action-smiley-069: to me next time, feeling a little lonely in my V. (don't look at how dirty it is at the moment though!)

I have a black grill, infinity badge and aftermarket headlights. Also only have the skyline on the back. But i dont have black rims, dark not black. Also i have a quad exhaust if you saw the back?

I may have mistakenly thought that the rims were black, they were definitely dark rims. Very nice ride :)

Thats it there...havent taken any recent piccies of it

Not real dark rims, May not have been me, but haven't seen any others like mine with my mods

Also it has SA plates now, so ignore the VIC ones

The rims were like a dark powdercoat and the front was the same.

I was in my silver V35 four door, car is completely original including the rims but has a double barrel exhaust. SA number plate ending in ACD.

It was in morning peak hour traffic so I will forgive this time if it was you :yes: but next time I want a :wave:

So basically i'm keeping it on the low-down and keeping out of trouble and trying not to draw attention to myself incase i do meet an educated police officer who knows that the car is illegal for me.

Sorry, that was my point.. it isn't illegal/restricted for you in Qld.. it is under 210kw, isn't a V8 or turbo charged.. so you don't need to worry..

Even if it's over the power to weight ratio legal limit? :whistling:

Power to weight only applies when applying for an exemption. I thought that vehicles had to be below 206kw?

^^ what he said.. (except it is under 210kw in Qld).

That is why I previously said that if Qld Transport ever decide to ban the 350GT, you don't have any hope of getting an exception..

i pass thru plympton most days. 90% of the time i dont see any either, then occasionally i see more than a few in a couple hours.

oh and define "double barrel exhaust"

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
