Hello new member from Melbourne

Wow you don't muck around!
There's a set of Phat Tein S Tech springs going in the For Sale section right now... They're maybe 25mm drop?
I'm going for pinks at 15mm drop
How many K's is it at?

Wow you don't muck around!

Yep, our lovely little community we have here will do that to ya

and for the s-tech's, its roughly a 20-25mm drop, the rear will drop a bit more than the fronts tho because of the extra weight in the back.
gambits car is a prime example i do believe?

and looking forward to meeting you on friday

Can't tell if you're making a joke about his damper settings at the drags....or being serious.

Edit: BBB added to list

you gotta admit, that was a big drop by gambit! haha i knew about his damper settings

Ha ha yeah I'm moving pretty quick, I can't stand driving "standard" cars...
I jumped on those Tein s techs when they popped up but I have heard they are a bit of a harsh ride so I gave them a miss.
Will have to do some more research into coils or just go coilovers, at least they're adjustable.

I'm looking at the Enkei rpf1's. They're not too bad on price for 18 x 8. Nice ol skool race look about them as well.
Any of the boys running these?

[bigBADbenny]

re: coilovers - you're probably right, in the long term, as there seems to be some consensus here that e.g. billies are best rebuilt/revalved to suit whatever springs one decides to run.
the cost of going that way exceeds entry level coilovers... (let me know if otherwise!)
with coilovers you get to have your cake and eat it too - as regards damping, spring weights, ride height, corner weighting and more.

Did you make it last night? Pretty sure I missed meeting you...
BTW these SSR type C rims have been on Gumtree for a while http://preview.tinyurl.com/7fx633q

Hey bud nah I didn't make the meet last night, got home from the pub and was in no state to drive
Will make the next one for sure.
Cheers for the link, looking for a bit more aggressive size and offset. Nice wheels though!
Looking at the Work emotion cr kai, can get them new for under $1700 delivered.

I have a set of rota's 18 x 9 +35 but I don't think I'll go down that path, bit too much negative camber and guard work required.
Be chewing through tyres too quick...

[bigBADbenny]

Those Work Emotions are great - even more so as you've got all the details (offset, width etc) sorted.
Bronze, blue nutz and blue stickers - whoa!

4 pots with 370mm rotors, was looking to get some brembos but these popped up for a ripper deal....

Found some wheels as well, ol mate had them in his garage for months, brand new in the boxes for his Audi.
Not a bad fit either
