have they got a motor to adjust the beam height?
from the looks of things... doesn't seem to have the motor/self-leveling.
How much were they though?
Nah i doubt they're self levelling, that'd be quite hard to isntall
what projectors are they? Do you know hwo to retro? good luck lol
someone on 8th gave me a site where u could buy projectors and just fit them in like bulbs or something, it was 'no cutting just baking'
interesting... could you see if you can find that site again please? :)
any one interested?

im more interested in this one Carbon Trim to match my gear trim. Just unsure how great the overlay is whether it will hug the steering wheel tightly
Finally got them :D

Reckon it's worth complaining about this thing?
http://i128.photobucket.com/albums/p...s/IMG_2756.jpg
for 99c + postage, i wouldnt complain. if they say they would offer u an exchange, then u would probably need to fork out money from ur own pocket to send them back. its not really noticeable and the whole thing looks pretty good.
take some more pics when u put em on ur car!

Btw guys, anyone recommend any decent springs for the FD1? for handling more than a drop though. I was looking at the eibach pro kit and wanted to know peoples opinions.
tein or eibach are good quality ones. dont give a great amount of drop, but i read on the 8th gen forums that they're very good for springs. skunks2 give more of a drop, but i dont think the ride and quality is better than tein or eibach.
in any case, if u wanna lower ur car on springs its best to change ur shocks and springs, if u dont wanna shorten the life of ur oem shocks
yea i was there,
thanks ekay1
The shocks would wear are THAT fast would they? I want a drop, just enough to merely cover up the gap between the guard and the tyre, not dump the car as some roads are shitty and gonna scrape everything. Nws Ej!
kings or pedders would do
but do take a look at teins on ebay.com
not aussie one
i had a set of eibach sportlines for the fd, loved them, less body roll during the corners and if i remember correctly they were designed to work with the oem shock so wear and tear was reduced, then i just got coils... that shat all over it in terms of everything LOL
anyone got these headlights? These projectors look good!

^ LOL!! would you recommend sportlines or pro kit? cant afford coils T_TQuote:

And ej, ive found some tein s-tech springs. Im deciding between sportlines, pro kit or s techs atm. Prices are pretty similar, so im not worried about price.
I've found a cheap set of pedders - what's the quality like with them - has anyone had any experience. I'm just looking to close the gap between my tyre and the guard. Yes with stock shocks. Shocks last around 100k so maybe they'd last 70k instead. It all depends on the roads too - and Sydney has the shittest roads.
a member on here is using pedders springs. im sure he will give you some feed back if he see's this post
ekay1, there us a guy from gumtree selling his TEIN s-tech...for only $150...
sportlines or s-tech, i would recommend either one of them, i didnt want the pro kit cos a 1 inch drop, you might as well kept the car stock and put a bag of rice in the boot
hey leo, nah not getting a varex, probably a PT06 or MP01 dual tip muffler.Quote:

The ones for $200 from waterloo? Thanks mateQuote:

just roll a coke can under the car, im sure my midpipe doesnt clear 10cm LOL
^LOL sif vip cars clear even 5 =P

Yea but nah lol, I rather cop the defect for ride height than a defect for bags lol easier to clear, atjo did that once in his euro and copped a defect for bags since the cop was like wth? I don't remember it being this high lol
But if you do it suttle and the cop doesn't notice then why not!
there is only one tein s-tech selling at gumtree as far as i know...ive sent him an email if he can give it for $150 (originally $200) and he said yes..so its a good deal for 150 mate...go get it...Quote:

Anyone know how to get permissions to post the car sale section?
You need to have at least one quality post point to move off 'newcomer' status and become a 'member' to sell anything on this site
How do you do that, really?
Someone needs to find one of your posts constructive and give it pq 'post quality' points. Once you accumulate enough you will earn the green dot. Then you must be a member for 90 days
yeah you need to be an active contributing member. One helpful post isn't often enough.
were'd u find t hat?!
