The stock suspension allows slight camber, however you will need camber bolts for more adjustment.

How much did the straight cost you..?

$374.00

very happy with the result and price :)

Where did you get this done at this cheap price?

$520? From ebay? Which one please? And does your steering wheel volume and seek controls work?

@deafdave.......................Straight pipes are fairly cheap to fabricate, i wouldn't pay anything more than what i did
anyways hit "Joondalup Exhaust and Brakes" - very friendly, quick, with moderate pricing

as for the headunit........
took me ages to find one with a nice classy user interface
anyways.... i got it down from $580 something
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/150974230717?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_10897wt_1397

note: 1. my unit made a 5-10mm gap between itself and the aircon vents
2. its very hard to find a professional who willing to install it, let alone for the right price (got charged like $150 so i installed myself)
3. all steering wheel controls are functional.

i might upload a video of the headunit interface.

For the straight pipes topic, I will give that place a go maybe later this year.

Hmmm interesting. Looks better than the other ones. And is it me or the software looks similar to the android ones?

Are you planning to lower the car anymore?

If so it looks like you need a lot of guard work.

Posted

i wish i could
but this is perfect for speed bumps, etc :)

Posted

Hoestly how much do you scrap esp when you're on a bumpy road or if you have passengers sitting at the back

Posted

The photo's background looks familar! I am thinking its north of Hillarys.

Back on topic, Alonso that looks good! And how did you go with high speed bumps?

Posted

just a little update

after hearing the amount of scrubbing i got on hard bumps...................

earlier today i went to pedders suspension (in joondalup) to get a wheel alignment and lift rear end up due to scrapping

Outcome: the awesome technicians actually got my rear wheels to fit (removal of spacers) within the guards and just mm's from coilovers......................plus managed to drop the front end more

NO MORE SCRUBBING + NO FENDER WORK + DEEP CONCAVE 10" REARS = :clap::toast:
remember 20" x 10" with 40+ offest :spiteful:..... "thankyou alonso"



Posted

Far sick !!!

Also be careful on hard turns, take your time, as the rim will scrape against the coils when turning too fast

Posted

Sick choice of wheels.. It's looking great!

Offset is slightly high thou. Im guessing it'll be quite close to your collies with that set up. Camber might be an issue too.

Why did you have spacers again?

Posted

Why did you have spacers again?

I think it was because the rims rubbed on the stock shocks........ adding the spacers got the rims off the shocks but then pushed the rims out past the guards.

So I think he went to coil overs and camber to combat this. But it still look as tho he's fighting the practical daily driver v's looks fight. Once you go down this path your committed to a massive trade off. But it looks hot :clap:

Now that you've sorted out the scrubbing, what height are you sitting at front and back? Just interested to see what you achieved. I've got a +25 offset 9.5 rear and struggling to get lower due to the atrocious road quality around near me.
