Tein HA coilovers, Cusco Struct Braces
Brake upgrades include endless pads, and brake lines, cusco master cylinder
It still had stock internals
This setup will beat type-Rs and I've never been scared of one....
Was planning for a final drive and LSD, that will kill type-R's with no problem
Mind you, it's kind of scary when I had the cams in coz for a tiny 1.6L,...I was still accelerating at full song going into turn 2 at wakefield (stockies will know their acceleration has already started to tail off)
Well, I rev all the way to 9,000 for gear change (rev cuts at 9,500-9700, forgotten the exact setting)
Took awhile to get the overall balance right too
It was worth it just to see those 4WD turbos and skylines getting their arse wasted at wakefield
But sold the car to go overseas, so it's not in my possession anymore...if i did,...i reckon the final gear, LSD would be in with an upcoming spoon engine (all the way to 11,000rpm)!!!!
