hi mate i have issues with some speed bumps they seem to be making them the size of mountains these days lol but only the little 1s in the middle of the road not the 1s that streach the full width but id say 85% i am ok with there is just 1 road in my area i cant even go up but id go for it mate you wont regret it id go for the 50/40 kit like mine ride height is perfect, how it should of been from the factory
Well the only problem where I live they are all the small ones in the middle of the road, which you can take them together (i.e. drive in the middle of the road), but i also have a big ramp up into our estate...I really want to get rid of that vast gap between the wheels and the arch, but would like to get to my house...and air ride is not an option...coilovers maybe an option...(or reversing up the ramp or taking it side ways!) Dont suppose you live in the south west and want to try it out for me!

sorry mate am in the midlands, its only the really big 1s that are a problem and just touch the splitter makes quite a nasty noise but had no real issuses other than the 1 road i cant do but them bumps are huge with big gashes in the side of the humps, coilovers could be an option but the ride is so harsh i have heard, the springs still give the oem feel with a touch more rebound so feels nice and are alot cheaper that coilovers, i was worried about getting out my drive and was s****ing it when i first took it out but misses by about 5mm its so close i think you should go for it mate
Hows the car mate? You managed to get the wheels all done? Bet they will/are looking great on this motor!
aup mate the car is spot on the wheels are being done on friday in course dark sparkle should hopefully look good will get some pics up when there done cant wait getting them done for £240 all in, same day service, also got 2 new falkens to go on the rear to match the fronts to go on, you done/decided on what else your doing to yours yet mate
Sounds great look forward to the pics!
I got all of my parts for my custom FMIC as well as a THS dogbone mount which has been sitting in my bedroom for ages. Followed your guide on the purchase with some changes on the intercooler set up as I have a different cooler. Plan was to do it today after re-doing my mates fuel system for his crazy Skyline but we ran into problems so going to have to wait to next week
Sounds good mate hope you get it on soon, makes a big diffrence i think i did some logging today the outside temp was 12 degrees and intake temps were 15 degrees so really cooled things down to the point where i can run 2.25 degrees avanced timing with no CFs, get some pics up when done mate
Thats fab to know, always thought upgrading the cooler would be high on my list. I havn't had the car mapped yet so will be interesting to see how the ecu adjusts itself and how it copes. Looking to get my echaust and map done shortly though. Will get plenty of pics for sure

Wheels look good, bay looks good, but please please LOSE THE STICKERS!! Or at least, don't add amy more! Just my opinion tho, and at the end of the day it's naff all to do with me!
Do you think you'll be making it to the Ring this year?
i know about the stickers was a good idea but not really liking them any more dont know about the ring the missis is pulling it big style mate but am booked in for spring fest and gti inters so they should be good with a bit of quarter mile action
What finish is that if you dont mind me asking? Has a real nice finish to it, bit of a sparkle look
