[private number]

I'm free....Sunday night bro? Or today after work.

[ptagna]

Those rims look familiar , isit Jerries ? lol

[Noodlez]

put them in already dude, doesnt take long :P

[jeffy]

Wow last post March 29 .... yep ... been that long since i got the coiles - tried to install them, however, Pillow Mounts didnt fit properly and, and the company ( which i'd rather not name ) said they'll get me replacements... and its been this long ... rather disappointed, but oh well,.. nothing to do but wait i guess ...

in the mean time ive been acquiring few more parts.

i'll let the pictures do the talking, because tocau loves pics....

1. 2nd hand. Halo Projectors - fro the US ...

Test fit .....

however it didnt fit =\... guy from us said it will bolt on directly without any modifications, found out it was false information and it requires me to do a little bit of work ...

also quality was pretty bad ... crack on one... and missing bit of piece on the other ...

2. wheels ... yup wheels, after a year of searching, i found the one ive always wanted to get, Advan AVS T6's

Size: 17x8" +30 Offset all round - wrapped in Noisy as hell hankooks..

Sizes are near perfect and i love them, front still pokes out by a tiny bit, and i love the fitment.

Put them on the car for a day, and took em off the next = due to no hubrings (didnt wanna be unsafe) and ill probably be powdercoating them black/gloss black/gun metal black

3. ETC.

Aurion Front Rotors and Calippers:

Sway bar links, = pedders said it needed changed ? i got probably fooled and didnt need them changed, needless to say i bought them anyway,

Dodo products = For cleanliness

Tubed item = Tail light tints - again..

and one last pic ;) !

*insert long cat here*

*sneak peak* coming soon (because tocau loves teaser pics ;) )

[trentmeyer23]

[jeffy]

hi jeffy

Did you finally install your coilovers ?

not yet, still waiting on pillow tops... =\

Nice work Jeff. Wonder if you can take out the halos and retro fit them into your stock headlights?

probably can, i however have no skill in that though :P

[Cee-Lo]

Sucks about the Projectors, since the lens is broken already, see if you can find a spare set of stock headlights, open them, up, do the same with the projector headlamps, then swap the internals over.

You'll need a hairdryer/heatgun, or an oven, a flat, preferably wide tool for leverage, and patience.

Hi all ! nothing major..still waiting on the pillow tops for the coils, i sent it back to the place where i got it, and they said they will custom fabricate it for me though, said another 2 weeks... so ill just keep waiting,

in the mean time, due to melbournes rainy cold misty weather, i decided to pick up some rainX, seemed to work well on my cousins car so i decided to give it a shot,

Also,i tackled the window sills once more, came out how i liked it :] !

Heres some pics:

Masking:

Removing: learnt my lesson from last time, carefully peeled the newspapers away,

Finished Product:

Thanks for looking :] !

[4ABHGE]

RainX is awesome stuff aye :D

[fillit]

does fogx actually work? my rear demister is broken and i dislike driving blind

[jeffy]

yeah, get it, compliment it with the yellow one, was on sale at autobarnz, was actually an impulse buy lols :P

[jeffy]

Hi all ! The moment ive finally been waiting on ! The coilovers are now INNN !!

Went for a trip to JAK Motorworks this morning to get them installed. BC Delivered in new tops - but from a 94 Camry and it fits.

some pictures because Tocau loves pics.

-off the hoist

and here are quick before and after shots

Defs a significant amount of drop from the normal setting, rear cambered in a bit, putting new wheels on Wednesday and adjusting ride height and getting an alignment as well.

The drive home was amazing !!

Handling wise - the car just stuck into the road complimented with the bars and poly bushes, even with almost bald tyres i can feel the car wanting me to push more and more.

Comfort wise - sitting on 15 clicks atm, pretty big change from stock pretty bumpy especially on west side roads. I might go 5 clicks back, but see how i go during the week with them, perhaps i just need to get used to it :P

-lastly this is the rears, i wonder if i can break that black piece of plastic so i can set the damper settings at the rear to my liking ?

More to come ! Thanks for reading !
