alex's GT spec B

Postby alexxxz » Mon Dec 15, 2014 9:57 am

Picked up this car in May this year. Was an original owner from Tassie with 27,000km on it. With help from Bumpty I was able to get it up on a hoist locally to make sure it wasn't too good to be true. Business owner had bought it for his wife (her daily) and needed bigger car for grandkids. After I checked it out handed over the money I hopped on the boat with it and drove it home Devonport-Melbourne-Wollongong.

Previous owner had ticked a few boxes with the front and rear lip spoilers, weathershields, mudflaps etc so that was a bonus. Had a TBE on it was an original Hi-Tech exhaust which sounded great but performance was average (split dump). Two months later I drove up the coast to MSR who fitted new exhaust (MSR dump and Invidia Q300 catback) and tuned it for me. Came back a healthy 182kw atw and drove 100x better.
Picked up some GTC01's for it which I had on for 6 months, then pulled them off and fitted some new wheels thanks to Mark (cruisn). So it now sports some OZ Ultraleggera 18x8 with 235/40's. Still a few things I want to do but will come with time and money :)

Now has 40k on it and is due for some servicing (8 year old car and original timing belt) before any more mods.

First day I picked it up:

I felt bad putting 1000km on it driving it home from Tassie!!

Very happy with the wheels, trying to source some black lug nuts and then some sti springs or tein h-tech springs now..

Muteki SR35 lug nuts are perfect length for the recess and good quality.

Car looks super clean. :ok:

I can vouch for the T2's. The QFM pads are good too.

I'm looking around for some rims for my lib, wasn't too sure how black would look against the silver, but after seeing yours i'm completely sold. Awesome looking car mate.
