lee grout Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 What to look at doing? Suspension? Exhaust? Brakes? All of the above haha It depends lol. If your happy how it runs just leave it/tart it up with some new service items........ .....Or if you have deep pockets find a YB and chuck that in, some Gaz gold coilovers and some massive 8 pots lol. Think YOU need a rough idea of what you want before we can help throw relevant ideas at you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will DEFO need a clean up or I could maybe sand blast them for you for a little more. Just ask for some pics if your interested. Look at mine in my thread to see how they clean up!

Jjosland Posted September 9, 2013 Author Share Posted September 9, 2013 I don't know too much, but would I need spacers on for my wheels? Yeah I'm interested in that. Might do that and stainless exhaust next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might do that and stainless exhaust next. i believe just 4 x 3mm washers to space the disc out from the hub a little bit, pm supersport or jc, they have both done this conversion, i have the 300mm's myself so i cant speak from expereince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jjosland Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share Posted October 6, 2013 Right, as you may have noticed I quite fancy a bit of white detail on my car... So after I painted the Splitter today (yet to be fitted) the I got carried away with this... and then I got carried away with fitting it back and marked it.... Grr. http://i1316.photobucket.com/albums/t616/Jjosland/IMG_20131006_153816_zps272cb111.jpg Oh and also I went to move the car earlier and some dbag smashed my passenger side wing mirror last night! Oil leak fix tomorrow too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
