Suntzu's Mod Log

[Suntzu]

ok.

M3 Style Lip spolier is in. Looks ok.

Pics soon.

Got confirmation on the ingalls and a few other bits.

Busy week coming up!


Only place left for a suspension install is Quickfit/Jax who may give me a discount if i get tyres at the same time...hmm..i want the best alignment tho no matter the cost. I see it as a safety issues when wife drives teh beast!

Ill sit on the header issue for week or so...

[Suntzu]

Tein Super Street Coilovers are in and the Cusco Strur bar came 10 mins laters. Looks like quality parts to me esp the tein.

It has begun:

In case you guys thought I was full of s**t I present the whitleine RSB:



Im expecting the Tein SS, Cusco and Ingalls in about 5-6working days. Euro-r grill in aweek or so.

Have to try and install the RSB myself with a buddy. Should be ok.

Im getting quoted $414 for the Tein installation and alignment? Is that about right pricewise?

Back to headers, the problem for me is that $1200+ headers arent allowed in my mod budget. Its purely an arbitary amount im limiting myself to. Then you go straight down to the elcheapo ebay headers.. not much in the $500-$800 header range at the moment.

more to come

Why dont you consider Xforce headers I think its about $399 in S/S

I have a feeling it is the same as the ebay (DC copy) version, well they look pretty close for the similar $$$ and you can get them locally.

Even though it is cheap you will notice a change in driving. However with any upgrade in yr exhaust you will not get any max gain without dyno tune.

Yes it does look very simlar doesnt it. I did a search and cant find much on it.

Im booked for 4 new tyres, the full install of the Tein, RSB and camber kit. I have got the camber kit yet so im hoping it arrives by thursday. Its about $400 for the full install and setup. The alignment is part of the new tyres deal.

Hopefully should go well.

cheers

Cheers Tony.

Im getting Michelin G-force 225/40/r18. Price not to bad at $270 each fitted. I decided not to pony up for the Sport Maxx/dunlp f1 as I was getting $390 a tyre. Rather spend that on mods like headers etc.
