Thanks cruzer....here are a couple more pics. Starting to get the hang of CS4. This one is from my iPhone, just washed her with FW1 waterless car wash. i'd say that last shot has been over-photoshoped =P

Holy crap its NIE7O. =O Its about time u posted up ur ride dude. We should go on a cruise sometime or go to a meet n talk stivos again lol p.s. u stole my hyper orange idea! lol now i might have to go takata green..

woah.. friken gun wheels mate.. ur brakes now look lyk a perfect fit compared to 18s.. good stuff!

some exotic parts you got there.. p.s. nice office chair :P

These days it dosnt seem like there is any criteria for it.

black stealth look ftw! glad to see u didnt go for anything shiny but yeh as evo7 mentioned.. needs to be slammed and maybe black headlight surround mod.. will look awesome.. dlift

I dont think it has anything to do with lift as he says the bogging down happens around 3000-5000rpm.. way before lift kicks in, and it happens even when the engines warm? Doesnt sound like something common.. just wait around for a bit and surely someone can help you out.

farr.. nice wheels.. dude u told me u were broke! haha anyway, when are u gunna be dumpin it on sum kings?

lol yeh i guess.. powdercoating cost me $150 for all four wheels. I probably could have got them done for $120 elsewhere but these guys were very quick and had great customer service.

Thanks guys =) for the positive feedback. Everything I did to my car was all influenced by this forum so I'm glad to hear that you guys like what I've done.. As for future mods.. not too sure. Maybe just some KYB Excel G's or even Koni reds/yellows to replace the oem shocks when they go and an Exedy HD clutch+fly wheel. Other stuff like strut braces, shortshifter+weighted gear knob, coilovers, power fc, I'll consider if they pop-up in the forum for a good price. But yeh, I might be looking to buy something turbo(MPS 3/6, 09 WRX, XR5, Golf GTI, Evo 8/9, GTR), prefably something all-paw or tail happy in the next few months so might hold back on everything. dlift

Thanks. It was 30kkms when I bought and now its up to 50kkms. I guess its still quite low..

Sup dudes! Been on here for over a year and was too lazy to introduce myself or post up my ride.. so here we go. I live in the western suburbs of nsw and drive a 2003 Sportivo. Bought it January last year after selling my 2000 Golf 2.0L Sport. Got it for 17.6k and was bone stock and in mint condition with 30,000kms on the clock(Now 50kkms =/). My current car and my old golf.. And the mods began.. King lows front, superlows rear(as suggested by SB), Whiteline rear sway bar, Phillips DV bulbs, Corolla door sills, JDM Taillight mod, debadged tailgate, SolarTint 20% all round, eyelids, colour coded mudflaps+eyelids. Slotted rotors, GreenStuff pads and gold painted calipers. Red center console mod. Sub, mono, 4chan, 6" splits - all JL Audio along with Alpine deck installed. Injen CAI installed. New shoes wrapped in Potenza G3s. 2.5" Catbak w/ twin tip by Liverpool Exhaust. And weathersheilds put on. Then last but not least.. Got my wheels powercoated charcoal grey at Preston Powdercoats(Great work and they are soo quick..strongly recommend them) and installed the grille I bought off Leroy for a bargain =) Cheers

nice set of wheels.. how well do those KYBs handle? and how much did you get them for if u dont mind me askin =] cheers

Thats one friken hot ZR.. Good to see a ZRE lowered for once! :P Cheers

There is a car set of 40mm adjustable suspension for the zze thats going for $880(springs not included) What a steal!

Well for me it was just a matter of adjusting the clutch(found in workshop submissions?). Took me almost an hour due to the difficulty of bending over backwards and the space you have for the spanner to work.

530whp.. I should get him to clear up my weeds in my driveway instead of pulling them out myself..

i'm happy to pick it up from the outer west area :) Likewise

Woot! I hope someone organizes a group install in Sydney.. :P

Don't mind the look of the mudguard option - has anyone here gone this way? (My car still looks too a55-up without a skirt or something to tie it in with the side skirts.....) Wow.. I would definitely go for the mudguards! Anyone know if they are still available? Or where I can source them from?

Lol thats awesome.. I went to BPHS with him.. He still plays soccer?

Dude, the guy on the right wouldn't happen to be Sezgin? Right?

on stock shocks the back will sit lower.. i am on KYB's with the lows up front and super low rears Hey mate, just wondering how do the KYB shocks feel compared to your king lows/super lows+stock shocks? I'm thinking about getting them and just wanted to know, was there any improved handling or comfort? And do the KYB shocks come as a complete strut? Cheers, dlift

Payment sent!

JL ftw! Care to share your systems setup?
