How much was top one
i paid $220 for the service cause i had to get gear oil and brake fluids
ah ok thats not too bad i guess hey lol..
man im so stuck... s2k or dc5r.. such a hard choice =[
s2k anyday man!!! but GG to insurance <.<
evo LOL
cant afford an evoooo lmao.. i would love an s2k but its so impractical =[...
My04 wrx sti
im gonna stick to N/A for this car. the one after this will be turbooo though lol.
Type S? :P performance meets comfort
you have to get one of these http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars/...ar&distance=25
lol.. im pretty set on an s2k provided a good one comes up at a decent price. and not an AP2... 20k too far down the track haha
btw would u guys ever buy an s2k thats already been resprayed....? same colour though but different shade
only if mechanically and cosmetically its in good shape and the chassis is straight
What are the best methods of checking a 12 year old car lol? I hear NRMA inspection is a waste.
hi guys, Im planning to buy coilover soon, and what coilover do you use or recommend? in terms of price and quality and where to buy,
thanks
black8thgen do you have a J's racing muffler on your car?
Nope. Kakimoto
ivi and mta :thumbsup: worth the $200 if you are buying a 2nd hand car in syd.Quote:

Anyone going to the meet?

Remember to keep the packaging and submit the registration form! only way to get replacement keys.
^ its only for the lock keys right?
Yes, it's so they know which key to send you if you ask for a replacement. That's what I like about the Mcguards, even if someone else has the same brand lock nuts it doesn't mean they can use their keys to open mine.
I wonder if how these would compare to my cusco's or to a set of buddyclubs.

Wow didnt know Ohlin made coils for our cars, from what i hear Ohlins are top of the range!
got a set of ohlins dfv ;) pretty goodddddddddd
Just keep in mind that if these are designed for the FD2R, it won't fit our FD1/2.Quote:

Found this website the other week, pretty sharp pricing on this Cusco. only $1200 for Cusco Comp S and $1500 for the Street A's. I'm hoping this sort of price is round in 12months.

Apparently a dc5r takes an s2k after same amount of mods? (straIght line). Should I get an s2k and supercharge long term or a dc5r and go I/H/E/kpro/TB etc
dc5's are great, but will always be wrong-wheel-drive.
black8thgen I guess it comes done to budget, Supercharged rearwheel power out of a S2000 would be awesome but scary on the limit I reckon and costly.
I often wish I had a RWD then I remind myself of the FWD potential when set up correctly. I've watched this video atleast a dozen times as reminder of whats possible !!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncnV7...layer_embedded
I'll be honest, I love FWD, it's very predictable most of the time, you either run into understeer, or if you're late, maybe a bit of lift-off oversteer under braking.
RWD is alot more wild, and I would say that it takes a certain finesse to handle with a large amount of power, whereas with FWD, it's you vs. the car, and it's more about muscling your way around corners.
Both are very fun. Most people just have an anti FWD stigma, partly due to the drifting scene.
If I had my choice on an upgrade it would be a toss up between a Renault Megane 250, a 370z, or a e60 530i Msport (all around 40-50k though).
DC5's have a boy-racer feel about them to me - just the kind of drivers I've met in the past really. s2k's are awesome, but less practical, and they only look good when they're dumped.
Again this is all my opinion. Nothing right or wrong :P
And yes damn I will finish that BBS LM's reversing DIY.
U sir an I think the same
yay duffy!! cant wait for the write up. anyway about 5 minutes ago as i was driving home from my local woolies. . . a gray fd drove past me with a black/ carbon fibre bonnet with the number plate fd2r. . is that anyone on here? and yesterday when i was enrolling for uni, i encountered another white fd in the market city carparks.. it was slammed with bbs look alike rims in black, is that anyone on here? man. . . theres just so many modified FDs out there that arent on any forums

Nice work mate. They're just for bling really but they look good, so long as you're not too low.
I just remember I still have a Beaks tie bar sitting in my garage...
I wonder if it will fit my euro...
yes! sold the buddy clubs :)
Yeah, comes with fog lights too and it is a sparkle grey. I'm sure somebody out there with a civic VTI would want an OEM spoiler for a good price.Quote:
