  1. Update: Trying to book for 18/10/09 need deposits if interested please contact me on private message and i'll supply bank details for an internet funds transfer.
  2. Up your budget or settle for a 325 beemer good balance of power and luxury and handles brilliantly
  3. I agree with Taco wrong section for this topic. Get a TRD Aurion or a Spec B 3.0 Libby from japanese cars. Otherwise get a year or two old beemer and be done with it.
  4. Jump onto the toymods forum and have a look in their for sale forum you may find one there albeit a more expensive one or an alternative you like even more like a TA22 maybe
  5. Have to agree with blind kid there These are not a common car really the pic of the bunch had the 18RG (great donk) I think the least you would need for an avg condition one would be 2.5-3k
  6. I still dont see the huge problem if you can afford 20's get them realistically 19's or 20's??? they r both effin huge so you mights as well go hugest
  7. I'll get one for you. My wheels are the Raptors not the std alloy i dont think.
  8. I was going to. Sorry if i seem snappy fella's trying to give up the smokes as of today! I know all your advice is meant well and i listen to everyones opinion. But at the end of the day i'm gonna do as i like if your advice changes my mind so be it. But i'm much more concerned about the little woman and her well meant gift than anyone here's opinion.
  9. Traffic lights are 3 seconds between yellow and red from what i know. And as long as all four wheels are in the intersection and past the lines for stopping before it turns red then your not running a red light. As for whether he could stop i dont think anyone but the driver could know that.
  10. i'll see if i can get out of it with exhaust maybe instead but bit of a price diff between exhaust and springs huh
  11. the point of the conversation is that my missus bought me something i already have but will want them in the car!!! So I do realise they arent super low and I DONT CARE its about keeping the woman happy. But of course everyone wants to give me advice i dont have to take then gets pissy when i dont! Time to realise an opinion is just that!
  12. No i didnt miss it i understand. All i am saying is, is there an epidemic of people changing shock absorbers after they onyl do springs? i dont hear about it. Just talked to my bro he says yeah they do work a little ahrder but unless your going to abuse the car dont worry the shockies may have say 20% less life in them.
  13. You can say wrong but are they going to fall out of the car? nope and when they go am i going to replace them... yup. Do i care? nope cos my bro's a mechanic with access to a hoist and air tools i can get parts cheap cheap so when they go i'll replace them. So realistically do i have to do whatever you guys say? nope. And as far as shock absorbers actually failing its not gonna happen overnight.
  14. Buy the kdis a cushion and tell them to harden up. Get the 20's
  15. Killing shocks quickly is relative to how hard you drive just installing lower springs will not destroy the shocks outright unless you drive it like you stole it everywhere and constantly load the corners up with weight. I understand it will reduce the life but when they go i'll replace them.
  16. Have to agree with Taco on this one you do the crime you do the time. Yellow lights ARE NOT jsut a funny shade of green despite what some say
  17. Specifically i dont carry passengers or things around. Its literally me adn the mrs and i will upgrade shocks eventually.
  18. Any particular reason? I'm not running big mags or anything jsut 16's
  19. Ok so i put the "low" pedders springs in thinking the missus wouldnt notice and well she didnt cos she's just told me to go and order the super low king springs off my mate for chistmas!!!! Conundrum!! Though i must say $216 for the front and back king springs is a good price. So maybe i'll get the superlows and give the low's to my friend for his aurion. Then me and my bro will change em out again! Just goes to show what women notice i guess.
  20. OK I will be attending the toymods day this sunday the 12th from midday at RAC driving centre grogan road at the int airport. I will be timing/judging the day and anyone who wishes to come along and have a look is welcome its a good day. If you come along adn decide you want to do this bring $70.00 bucks with you and i'll try and get enough together for another day to book there and then. I will be the red head with the clipboard and stopwatch :P Unless someone pulls out in which case i'm gonna try and drive
  21. When i was in the RAAF the SAS had a bunch of those patrol's painted Matte Black with Bar Work all over them and a "Roof Hatch" for convenient machine gun firing hahahaha
