  1. Cheers noodlez. The pic turned out great. Can't wait to see the rest of them ;). Thanks guys. I'm pretty happy with how it looks at the moment but still have more I want to do :)

  2. I like this a lot more!!! Really nice design there Luke :). The second last picture is the best just because you can see the amp and the light behind it. The last picture the amp just becomes a shadowy box. It needs to be seen :)

  3. Nice pic's Chris,

    In such a short time you have made this one of the best looking cars on the forum with some of the best mods,

    Rob and i last meet both wished we had your front end :)

    Cheers Luke. Just following in your footsteps. Most of the ideas I have come from you anyway ;)

  4. Did you remove the rear splash guards? Just be careful in the rain if you did because it will be scarey when you first apply the brakes! To fix it you need to have slotted or need to slot the rotors.

    I didn't remove the rear splash guards but I've never checked I they are there either. But the rotors are slotted so should be all good.

  5. Don't mean to rain on your parade, the Kluger/etc brakes are an excellent value for money upgrade but they are not up to par with the TRD brakes.

    Far more to braking systems than just rotor size and number of pistons

    Yeah I don't know much about breaking systems at all. I got the kluger upgrade off advice I read on one of the threads. It worked out a lot cheaper then a trd set and I'm really happy with the results. To be honest I couldn't warrant the $1200+ it would have cost to get a TRD set. :)

  6. What are the specs on the calipers? How much of a difference have you noticed so far

    The calipers suit a 328mm rotor. So far I havnt noticed a huge difference but the guy at the break place said I wouldn't until the pads are properly bedded in. It is more responsive though

  7. So after chasing down parts to upgrade my brakes for the last month or so i finally have my new brake system on. Only changed the rears to slotted rotors but the fronts i changed the callipers to the larger 2010 Highlander callipers (Americas Kluger). Could not for the life of me find any kluger callipers in aus for a half decent price. Got the highlander ones sent over for $150. Just changing the rotors over has made a world of difference look wise.

    Teaser pic. More pics to follow later
