Picked up the car yesterday (Sat 28th) from Option 1 with my new BC BR coilovers fitted, $1299 + $350 = $1649.

After driving it home for 20km i found out theyre too hard for me so going back to stock with chopped springs.

Just seeing if anyones interested in them for $1000? you save $299!!!!

Cheers

Simon

I asked the garage to adjust them to their softest setting.....found out they were nearly at their hardest, then i found out they had mixed up my staggered rims and put one of my 9.5inch rims on the front with a spacer,(because it was catching and they didnt know why) it ground off the inside off the rim when turning left, bit scary for the wife. Then theyd obviously put one of the 8inch rims on the back. Needless to say it was driving pretty darn cr#ply.

Since then i swapped the rims and have wound the coilovers to max soft.

So in conclusion, i dont know a lot about cars and maybe I put a little bit too much faith in the professionals.

This EOI can be deleted now as i'm pretty happy.

Cheers

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
