Hey guys, im new to the forum but thought id post up some pics of my RS4 turbo M35. Im in NZ but running euro plates.

Running 19x10 AME rims at +5 offset, silk road coil overs, raiser exhaust.

X-member sits at 38mm from the ground.... suspension can go lower but as you can see its hard for the body to drop any more, also top arms hit on the body at this height.

Looks great! do you have any problems with the steering arms pointing up at that angle?

a mate of mine lowered his Pulsar to some stupid degree that he was having problems with the angle of the steering rack and arms

nah ive been told that its unsafe and the steering arms are on a wack angle and all that but to tell you the truth the car drives great apart from the top arms hitting the body (ive cable ties silicon hose on them) and the ground clearance. only thing ive had to replace was a CV boot

Welcome Jordan.

Great to see an RS colour-coded. Looks good!

Is that a Takero's Full Titan exhaust?

Dunno about the stance... if it was on Aussie roads anyway...

Always loved that style of wheel on M35's

yea i had all those black boring parts painted out :)

nah the exhaust is only the rear section, its got twin 4" tips... i had to source it from japan as i could find nothing for it

as for the stance ive had too much influence from sites such as hella flush and stance works

Any fender pulling / rolling to fit those bad boys? or just a lippin?

Looks very hot btw... certainly the look i will be going for once i find some decent offset rims

I have done nothing to the front gaurd except remove the screws that hold in the innder gaurds, i have a gaurd roller so i lipped the rear gaurds but had problems with the rear gaurds rubbing on the lip of the mag wheels so i had to push them out another 5mm or so :blink:

WOW mate, just stumbled upon this now and... yeah WOW!

My new inspiration. I just bought a Masa rear wing and am about to order a JP Simple Style front lip and once I can afford it, some nice deep dished 19"s and then SLAM.

Are you running a Masa rear wing also? Looks very similar.

Mike: It's my parents house

If I'm not mistaken its got Andrew Patteson Architects' signature all over it.

Nice looking car will look out for it but I'd never go there as I hate the low gait already and would source an ARX next for the go most places flow. Bilstein shocks and rear swaybar and front brakes modded of course but not lowered.

    • The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.
    • But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...
    • I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
    • I didn't actually try it at the time but a Launch X431 with the appropriate software licenses/upsell will have the ABS bleed function. The Consult II you can still find some old sets of equipment but they're really, really expensive:   
    • Well I'll start by saying I'm not an engineer. I am going to go with the KiwiCNC ones.  They are made of 7050 alloy have good fillets and radius.  The material alone is in the order of double the strength and fatigue resistance - Those bolts, once torqued correctly place most of the load at the flat face of the mating surface - the 'stretch' you're talking about through torqueing them up would be far more than the extra stretch 'load' placed on them from a steering input or bump. (in my opinion) so I doubt they would flinch.    - but again "not an engineer".      oh and I don't think stitch welding 7050 is a good idea, likely just weaken the material (from what I read)
