man i can never tell if your joking or not so i just assume you have no idea and u potentially fail at life.

yeh its fkn soo sleek its just like the ultimate cruiser.

edit u get coilovers or spring/shock combo?

nah just tein s-tech springs, the stardard shocks are surprisingly stiff

like most cars, it needs swaybars for body roll.... but for handling the s-techs on the factory struts are fine for the streets

maybe later i might go coilovers... but for now im happy with how its sitting

sweet as get a build thread goin ya lazy mofo.. if i missed it link it up :)

night ya'll

17's on a evo looks like ass unless its slammed hard. which you're never gonna do.

just sayin.

grids are good tho, and look sweet on an evo. remind me of oldschool enkei's.

since you're not gonna do a "street look" you should go for the rally look... I'm talking mudflaps, good clearance, thick rubbers and most importantly, spotlights. lots of them.

ive heard that the stock shocks in the evo are stiff.

ill have to lower my car when it gets here also.

already got some plans.

yeh for now i just want a better looking wheel than the tarmacs... being white looks shithouse

most likely ill go the grids in 18s later on when i got more cash

yeh the jdm evos have really stiff shocks, more than the adm cars

stop wasting your money. if you even think for a second "i'll upgrade later" when buying a part.... DO NOT BUY IT! just save for an extra bit longer and just buy what you want to put on it later.

nah if i dont like it i can resell the wing blade, if i paint it i cant

why paint the bonnet? its alloy dick jockey only have a black hood if u get carbon

haha yeh that one looks nice, but epic fitment and epic low

the black suits having no wing

lol i was trolling

your too easy

haha nah i thought long and hard about getting the grids in 17s

they look the goods on a red US evo 8 that was about my cars height atm

if anything itll be coilovers most likely later on to lower it if i get over it

Lol yea they are stiff as. My mate has an evo 7 bilstein edition (whatever that is) and it's a bumpy arse ride standard

tryn to work out which is cheaper 18s or coilovers

and coilovers are in the end

you're choosing to get 17" wheels (over 18" that you want) so that you can afford coilovers as well right now?

just buy the coilovers now, save a little more, then buy the 18". your car will roll just fine with the wheels its got on right now.

    • Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.
    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
