Good as I do 20- 25 thousand miles a year .

Good numbers and helped by the low miles I would think .

Alan

Expensive compared to other cars esp if you start fiddling with them

16 k miles ?

That is low

Was me just checked

Great build so far keep it coming .

Alan

Are they my old brembo brakes you have there ?

Alan

most of the time im at 1000 or 900 RPM in 6th is this not the best for fuel saving then ?

I thought the lower the RPM the better ?

Alan

You guys do know, higher gear doesn't mean better MPG...

 

Granted don't be cruising at 70 in 3rd, but doing 40 in 6th is doing you no favours either.

Ultra racing do one I think but may be a lead time .

Alan

Just received this little lot the door

Alan

For £ 20 and a good earth it was worth it for me .

Alan

Night and day even with the tracking out as it will be at the moment .

One if not the most impressive upgrades I have done .

Alan

My MisterR on full soft are the same as my OEM set up if that helps .

 

Alan

 

Did they make a big difference to the way the car drives?

I hod the Tein springs and it is a touch lower than that so say 22mm .

Alan

Looks about right to me. How much is it actually dropped from the stock ride height ?. I am dropped 20mm on Tein S Springs but it looks slightly lower than mine.

Was to low for me so jacked up the ride height a little and now happy and set with this .

My MisterR on full soft are the same as my OEM set up if that helps .

Alan

So this weekend i had a go at setting the ride hight for the coilovers .

i think it is where i want it but what do people think as i do not want it to low ?

So the Quaife would be best for me then

Dos this need new drive shafts as my GT has the VLSD .

Alan

I have heard that this is noisy and a bit harsh for road use .

Alan

Nismo GT Pro is an awesome bit of kit, that would be my recommendation

I have a leek coming from the diff bush that I will change for some Whiteline units but at the same time was thinking about changing the diff to a Kazz 1.5 super Q or something .

The car is my day to day with some track outings now and then so I would be looking for something more for the road .

Can anyone recommend ?

Thanks

Alan

Stop tempting me

Thank you sir .

I think we are on the same course with our cars

uprated 105 way LSD will be next .

Alan

Looking good Alan

Another update as I got round to fitting my Meister-R Zeta-R coilovers .

Front old vs new

Installed Front

Front adjuster

Rear old vs new

Installed Rear

Rear adjuster that needed some drilling of the rear brace .

Have only driven it a few miles but the handling is night and day on full soft to the set up that was on it .

Ride is 3-5 % more stiff on full soft vs the old set up so nice and compliant on full soft .

Would go well with the BBK

Alan

OK, I'll PM you now to get the ball rolling... :lol:

God I wish I did not open this thread .

Alan

Ah thought you had done the uprev .

That will be fun with that lot and a good few BHP more .

ARB are one of the best things I have done you will love them turn in is so much more crisp .

Alan

Stunning car as well .

Looks so nice I do love them in Black .
