caps on
 
Got my new carbon mirror caps from Streamline on the other day, not as easy to fit as I thought! ha!
Coilovers are coming off at the end of the month and being replaced with Apex springs and dampers, so itl but up to about 35mm down instead of the 60mm its at just now, the coilovers are just a bit to bouncy and they nock hard on any bumps and anyway tbh Im looking for performance over looks anyway. Got powerflex rear arb bushes goin on aswell.
Some new plans ahead so will post up soon!
Comments on the caps?! :y:


X895INVER 16th September 2009 13:48

Right so Iv changed my thoughts on what to change my sus to instead of the Raceland coilies and Kam now has Eibach 50mm springs with Apex dampers so Im deciding to go for that. My mind always changes :panic: but I recon thatl be the set up goin for a front lower strut brace aswell. As for today Im goin to take a carpet out a spare vtr and fit it with the new centre console, pics should be up later but for now...

Carpet
 
Well, last night got new carpet fitted, recon Im just keepin it in till the power mods are put in!:P Will put up pics later but its nothing exciting eh?!
Also ordered a compbrake quickshift so that should be good once its in. New sus on in a week or 2 hopefully! :y:

X895INVER 26th September 2009 19:06

Final Choice!
 
Hahaha, right so Iv changed my mind again. Now deciding to spend a bit more and get the Spax PSX adjustible kit (40mm) from kam. Should order it tomorow so I wont be changin my mind again! Quickshift on the way aswell and maybe new doorcards?! :panic:

X895INVER 14th November 2009 12:30

Yo! Fair while since last update, aint been able to do too much recently, alota work to do!
Just had the spax psx kit fitted yesterday raised up by 20mm, so sittin at 40 now, they feel so much better its crazy and handling is top noch! Next up is goin to be the exhaust, got a powerflow cat back system on just now and got no problems with it, but thinking on gettin the Supersprint Magnum full exhaust and Supersprint 4-2-1 and get it heat wrapped. I hear this is a good set-up, anyone had this?!
Pics up soon...

Matty 14th November 2009 17:59

Well, its been ages since my last update so thought Id add whats been going on. No massive jobs been done but, de wipered the back, painted front and rear calipers, fitted wind deflectors. Had my vtr rims on over the snowey months but the past couple weeks have been real nice so put my pro race 1.2s back on the other day, first propper chance to test them out with the Spax set up and it feels great, sticky sticky!! :P
Pretty much now Im collecting up all my parts to get GSXR 1000 throttle boddies fitted ie, throttle boddie unit, Inlet manifold, fast road cam, standalone ecu, 10 row oil cooler, 4-1 manni ect.
Should be alot more updates coming soon hopefully and pics up soon also!
Let me know what you think.. Cheers! :y:

Saxguy 13th March 2010 19:11

looks nice buddy

X895INVER 4th April 2010 15:00

A wee update.... Gave the car a proper wash/polish/wax the other day with the nice weather coming back and all... Used the usual Auto Glym shampoo then a couple layers of AG Super resin polish and then some dodo juice Red Mist, worked really good, so got some pics to put up.
As for other things, Iv got Ultra, black headlights on the way and will be fitting 6000k hids in soon. Tinting out the fogs, rears and side repeaters this week aswell. Thinking of getting bonnet raisers as the strut brace tends to rub off the bonnet.
Comments apreciated!

X895INVER 9th April 2010 12:42

:bump: on peoples thoughts...

harry289 19th April 2010 17:25

i really like this car. hopefully getting my new silver vtr this week! start off standard and just do subtle mods like lowered 40mm, cat back stainless exhaust and a few little bits here and there. the more subtle cars in my opinion look better. whats the suspension and ride like with the new set up? is it hard or is it okay?

Claki 5th July 2011 12:48

Head lights are looking good dude. and your car looks really tidy, keep up the good work ;)

X895INVER 5th July 2011 17:45

Cheers man, car is up for sale though as I have a gti on the go now.

Ramigojag 22nd July 2011 18:11
