APT 195 Report post Posted August 20, 2011 Thanks for the comments guys, this shouldn't of taken this long but we all know how these garage projects go.. Would i do it again ? Yes, as long as your car isn't a daily driver, I will admit i learnt a bit more about my car and how things work. I spent about $2500 for new parts (AKG bushes, M3 brakes +control arm, whiteline sway bars, coilovers etc.) which i reckon is quite reasonable considering all the parts i changed. If you wanted just the brakes upgrade i would advise to check out massive brakes 4 stud brake kit - a lot less hassle IMO. Next project will have some boost Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

APT 195 Report post Posted August 21, 2011 I had to raise the car a few mm and adjust the shocks stiffer due to rubbing in the rear under load and simply driving through corners.. Just drove it through Whitford to test and ive still got some rubbing in the rear im thinking i have to get some thinner tyres ive currently got 215/45's might have to go to 205/40's all around.. Any ideas ? firmer springs ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaz 64 Report post Posted October 23, 2011 I got plenty of photos from it from the Supershow. Congratulations on taking out best euro. Also what did you use to blacken out the window trim? And did you take them off to do it? Or mask off the surrounds and spray them still attached? I want to do them to my car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
APT 195 Report post Posted October 23, 2011 The trim was taken off and painted when it had a respray done on the car. Its not too hard to take off just have to be gentle not to bend the metal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Top Secret 2 Report post Posted October 25, 2011 Looks much better with those smaller tyres on it. Just a tad lower and it'd be perfect. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
APT 195 Report post Posted October 25, 2011 Thansk for those photos Kaz, Yeah i do agree will be dropping both front and back abit lower - will need to roll the rears out abit more. Been thinking about rebuilding another set of wheels for the January show which will definately set it off and be different. - will see how funds are after Christmas. Thanks for the postive feedback team! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
