As far as the coilovers go - in a nutshell chalk and cheese over stock suspension with lowered springs that I was running to date. The goods handles like it is on rails - would be absolut

In other news....

Going to spruce up the rims as best I can and then put all four on the car to narrow down what tyre specs I want to run.

Leaning towards 245s 40/45 18 (common size and therefore cheaper) - though I would like to run 255s.

Also debating what tyres to run.....tossing up between Ku31s, Sumitomo z111s and Toyo T1 sport

Awesome choice of wheels Jez. Got a photo with them on? I reckon it will transform the look of your car totally and the dish will suit the black-on-black theme you've got going...

Thanks - I do :wub: them.....

Will post pics asap.

Black centres... whats the sizing?

OH MAN...Don't start that again :domokun:

(I can hear Jonno screaming "all black" and my brain screaming "gold with silver lip" and you going "black centres please - thanks" - noooooooo its in my head !!!)

18x9 +35

Don't forget to look at the Nitto Invo Pro; killer spec for the price.

Those rims will definitely be a slick addition.

Cheers Dale...will check.

Any recommendations on where to pick up tyres from btw??

I pm'd Taleb Tyres on here but no reply yet.

Anyone bought anything from Ozzytyres?? - seemingly awesome pricing.

Amazing work! I'm glad to see someone else taking the one colour look so well.

(One day I'll make everything blue!)

Thanks man........plan to still keep the silver lip though even if I do powder coat the centres.

I like blue :geek:

Damn those rims look sexy as fark!

Love how this car has come along

Thanks mate :) There was a time when I was tempted to go with your setup (black on black looks killer too).

ITS MY BIRTHDAY !! :banana:

Went for a trial fit this morning to my local tyre place to finalize sizing etc.

As of now I am going to run 235/40R18 fronts and 255/35R18 rears

Will be ordering my new tyres soon.

Also, want the car looking the way I want it now so going to run 10 or 12 mm bolt on hubcentric spacers on the fronts to get the wheels looking a tad more agressive. (provided I find some - only found 15s so far) There is no way in hell I am running slip ons - say what you may!

Will not have to change the factory bolts as the rims have space for the protrusions (yay!!)....so might end up running spacers on the back as well. (P.S. I am aware of the legal stuff).

Stay tuned.

      Borg Warner EFR Series Turbo's V 2.0

      Admittedly in that screenshot its doing about 13psi but later on in the log theres definitely spikes to 16. What is missing though is the massive peak, then a big drop and then a recovery. While it does go a little higher than I would like on base pressure, I think it's reasonably safe to assume that boost control via the mac valve should be a lot easier to control from here on out. I wasn't game to hook up the mac valve today as it's very wet and it's on the verge of fighting traction as it is.

      I think this is still wrong. There is something crappy with wastegate priority (or the f**king absence of it) if you can't get below nearly double the base spring pressure. But if you're happy with what you've got, upload skid vids now.

      So a further update for this one. Turbosmart were very gracious and took one look at the wastegate and said this is our original version, we will just replace the entire thing and send it back to you. So I fitted the new wastegate with its new revisions and took it around the block on spring pressure (9 psi spring). Appears the minimum it will do is about 16psi. Keep in mind this is only 2nd and 3rd gear pulls. I think the issue is fixed compared to what it was doing before however I'm happy to provide more logs if anyone thinks theres more to the story to uncover

      Looking for someone with a R34 front bar

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Surely, if you have the indicator in hand and a pair of verniers, you can measure it up and draw your own cut template? I mean, it's got to pretty clear what has to pass through the hole, what has to sit on the outside face of the hole, and what has to be able to pass through and perhaps clip into place on the back side.
