FTO AUSTRALIA

I don't mean like 4/3, just 1kg down to 6/4 like Bennoz suggested. Chill the f**k out man.

I've explained this before, I'm just well researched, haha. Kiz is selling his extractors? Why for?

Better to research and get it right the first time than impulse buy then sell/replace when it isn't what you wanted. Within reason.

Haha well if he ever goes turbo (likely), manifolds in, extractors out. 9+ months away but it's looking like a reality.








.... eye dibbsed zem...

Yeah as will prob model off manifolds much cheaper to remove mine then just copy than fab new from scratch

True dat. You can have 'em Rubes. By that time I might have my own things in motion.

I wished I lived at home with my parents

Do you? I don't. I see them every week anyways.

What's the relevance, meanwhile?

Mebbe. We'll see, haha.

Got me an alignment today, and some cam-bears on the rear. Tim's bolts weren't up to his satisfaction, so none on the front. As explained, scrub is rampant. I can feel the new wheels and tyres have a lot more potential, but I can't utilise it effectively. Next stop: coilovers, haha. And as usual, pics. A smaller amount this time.

If you get softer spring rates your defeating the purpose of coilovers, you may as well go get some big king springs and chop them to size like a commofag.

Relax, he's just in to making his e-peen bigger.
First wheels, then tyres, now spring rates.
Next thing will be sway bars, then urethane bushes and so on.

I dont know how much more I can take

Your far from well researched, your so detailed and Nitpicky it borders on autistic.

Jokes, its looking great mate but for heavens sake just buy standard BR's Lol.

You can call me the anti-Toby. I am a balancing force in the FTOAus universe.

I like the look with that tyre size actually and the height is about perfect, looks tough!

Have you rolled the guards? If not do this as this may be all you need. Coilovers with stiffer springs would be a good idea though.

Yeah, guards rolled flat and it's still a b*tch, haha. Hate to imagine what it would've been like without. Likely would've shredded a tyre. I can already see (only really on the left front) a numbers of lines from where it's bounced against the fender. This is the cost of cheaper tyres.

Car does look good with that stance.
Especially with the roof up.

I personally don't think it needs anything else, looks good as is.

Looks a bit tall at the bum, but ehh...

Yeah so you definitely need coilovers with stiffer springs. Keep the ride height as is though I reckon, looks good.

I also think the rear tends to look a bit high, but the actual difference is stuff all between front and back. (like 5mm tops.)

Personally I think it looks better with a little rake. Not a big fan of the 'drop the arse' look lol.
