  1. A.Rice just past the Anzac Bridge, west-bound..
  2. I thought camber bolts can only fetch a maximum of -1.5/-1.75 degrees usually. Odd.. Normally you would need 2 pairs per side to net ~-3.0 degrees of camber. There's also alot of toe-in in the rear. That's going to wear your rear tires out very quickly when coupled with the negative camber already there. I'm guessing with the design of the rear suspension does not permit for toe adjustment unless you use shims to correct the toe?
  3. Thanks guys! Yeah, they're RPF1's. Size and offset is 17x8 +35. :) The RE-11 tyres are a little quieter than the RE-01R's. Grip-wise, it's much the same. The RE-11 is a little bit more comfy with the slightly higher side wall (215/45R17 vs. 205/40R17).
  4. 28/09/2011 Rear strut brace fitted to replace the OEM brace. Improvements over the OEM rear brace include it being thicker, and having one extra mount point on either side.. oh and of course more bling..
  5. Oh I think I remember seeing you cruising around the apartments. You have an exhaust right? There was another black 'rolla and a bunch of other cars in one of the dead end streets having a photoshoot I think..
  6. 27/09/2011 Rear brace is hopefully going in tonight.. so pics of that tomorrow. I also raised the car to a 2" drop all-round. Handles much better than before.. :)
  7. Oh yeah? Where abouts? Thanks Peter! I imported mine for 22,000 driveway late last year.
  8. 26/09/2011 All parts have arrived now.. wheels and tyres are scheduled to be fitted on October 8th! :)
  9. You know it! :P Spotted A.Rice on Burwood Road just past the Parramatta Road intersection.
  10. I haven't had them fitted yet.. everything is just sitting in my hallway atm.. :( Waiting on lug nuts.. I'll do a comparison after I get them on for sure! :)
  11. 09/09/2011 So, I've done quite a bit of shopping recently. Have some bits and pieces coming in from.. A set of nuts like these.. but with closed ends. Also ordered a couple of bits from.. Hopefully they arrive within the next two weeks. :P
  12. Pretty sure I spotted A.Rice travelling down Burwood Road last night.
  13. Nice driving there Ben. Hopefully I'll see you down at Wakefield sometime soon!
  14. As far as I know, this tyre is not officially sold by Bridgestone Australia. I have heard that some Bridgestone Select stores offer these tyres, but will charge you an arm and a leg per corner. I'm getting mine through Tirerack in the US. 1168 USD delivered.
  15. Spotted A.Rice parked on Burwood Road last night.
  16. 03/09/2011 Just made payment for some of these:
  17. These weigh a whole kg less than my old wheels.. and they're larger and wider. :P
  18. 30/08/2011 So the UPS man arrived early..
  19. Smoked badge looks heaps good on the white. Good work!
  20. Mine's done just over 50,000kms. Yeah, I guess I do! :) Oh the VTEC cross over is so-so, hah... :P I know this guy who has a worked EP.. putting out 160+ kW at the wheels. The downside is it only gets 280km per tank... so I'm not really chasing power, more into fine tuning the handling. :)
