Depends if it includes the top mounts/camber plates. I paid $2500+ landed for full kit when the NZD was strong (shocks, springs, mounts, etc) P.S. Your car lookin choice
-
Well, he didn't have much to say? So I assumed all good. It drives well - just has a notchy first I'll ask him if he remembers anything to note when I pick up my new box. ....or if anyone wants to pay for a rebuilt G260...POA

It's had the sensor holes put in to suit my PFL M20B25.
-
Expression of Interest: I have a Getrag 260 I don't need. It's been taken apart, inspected and put back together by Ernst at Bavarian motors. The box is still in the car, and will be removed as soon as my new box is ready. I want $450.

Damn, this really makes me regret selling my RS's Maximum 80's P.I.M.P.
-
I think what CamB means is that slip-on's have a max of 20mm. ALL spacers need certification. I have had experience with Neil Fraser in Beachaven and have found him to be very helpful.
-
The kit is in fact pretty choice. And it'd save you the hassle of fitment P.S. Fitment isn't nissan/ziptie easy...drilling of sides required and some tow hook surgery for tech1's.

I like dish when it's got fat rubber on it: I also like more track worthy rims - TE37's, my SE37K's, basically anything properly forged and light. Yes I know Kosei's are about as strong as cheese, but I like this picture.
-
I think I'd go black in general...blue looks out of place. Just my opinion though. When I can be bothered I'll get my PPlate done in black euro.

Depends how much power he wants/is allowed I guess a 325i E30 would be best value for money. Some of these came with ABS Cheaper to fix (I think) Simple car, not that much to go wrong. The facelift models - 1988 onwards have improved crash structures if safety is a concern. However, these are generally more sought after (read: expensive) than the pre facelift models. I bought my pre facelift 325i auto (with sports/economy/traffic trans option) for $2000 - full leather, sunroof, no rust, etc. An extra $500 spent on it and it would've been a very reliable car

Too much camber just makes the cars look broken to me
-
That's awesome, I just realised it's a PFL without any of the PFL ugliness! Does it have any other tasty ACS bits apart from the kit?
-
i'll clean them. I just haven't gotten round to it. Besides, dirty dirty oem looking brakes mo' betterer atm. "honest officer, these bmw's came with big brakes, look how dirty they are they must be factory." However, bright yellow/red/gold suspension might give it away.
-
Depends how wide they are
-
Would this also apply to 16x8's with 225/50R16 rubber on a E46 sedan? What would be ideal offset (not max-min)? Not worried about looks - just need wheels to make the rubber sit better. (sorry for hijack)
-
CamB will LOL when he sees there are fanboys for german racing brown.
-
Maybe before you modified it? Might fetch less now
-
We used freeze spray on the S13's turbo mani, worked ok if you can isolate the cold.
-
Any rust on the Mk2?
-
Am fairly certain they'd foul with rubber on. My baskets with 205/50R15's were literally mm's from the strut.
-
Lip looks super rad dude, looks like you made it fit really well. I might have to keep mine for daily. Lol, your car looks hella better than mine. Muchly jealous.
-
Yeah, I'd like to keep the spacer as small as possible...really looking at 15mm or 20mm. But I'm more interested in fitment of spacer - total dia, inner, etc But like I said, no rush.
-
Much quieter and better response. Haven't had any problems with wet, huge water channels in RE001. I have never worn down F1's before, but friends have said they're next to useless when past halfway? I reckon on the road you won't really be close to the limits on T1R's, F1's, RE001's, Yoko Advans, Conti's, etc. So maybe pick the one that best suits your budget? Though, I'd probably go for the Advans, RE001's or Conti's personally, I found the T1R's and F1's have too soft a sidewall for my liking. My 2c I'm sure Zennetti and other more knowledgable forum members will be along shortly.

OP: That's awesome! Manual too! Haha, that's how my tech1 is attached at the moment
