Hey Justin .....

You can always tell when people have taken the time & pride to do things thoughtfully & properly .... 8)

The Paint job you've done on your Brake Calipers seems to be exactly that and deserving of praise .... *clap2*

Your obviously a Fussy & Fastidious Person just like me .... :lol:

Hope to meet-up one day and get a better look.

Love the Blue .... I considered it and almost did, but did 2 Tone Red/Silver.

Hey Sam,

Thanks man took me the weekend with the old man that owns and works on his show car... so can imagine the knowledge base i got there... gotta love him some days can be really helpful. him and his shed.... although we had alot of difference considering hes V8 and im turbo...
(but we all know that god invented Turbo lag to give V8's a chance... he just dont believe it yet lol)
yeah pretty much Sam if i dont like it, ill continue to do it over and over again till its right... e.g. my dash interior lights... i like yours but the only problem is that silver... yeah thats going to get pretty dirty mine was heaps bad till i cleaned em up
yeah they look way way better in the day, my mate wants to take some pics of the car with his new camera some expensive sony thing i donno i like cars and computers not cameras lol

love how your coils match your brakes and its not to over the top like people just paint EVERYTHING red... half the reason i took the leap for blue and i gotta say with the blue standard plates on it... looks great (Y) very close in colour

will hopefully see ya in one of the meets or the bathurst run mate
t.c. laters

LOL yeah we cleaned the area thoroughly first... figured there was no point in washing the rest of the car until the day before our meet/cruise on Sunday.

By the way, thanks Sam! Will definitely get the armrest cover! By the way, the gear knob you have is original from Aspire? Possible to have a closer look? Planning to get a knob

I had both Whiteline sway bars installed today (24mm front and back). I haven't really had the chance to push my car yet because of the rain, but it does feel a lot flatter in just basic cornering.

I have the front set to the 'soft' and the rear to 'medium' for now. Not sure if I should stiffen them up any more.

Also had a wheel alignment done as I took out my front struts to re-sit the springs to fix a noise issue.

you may find that it will be quite taily with the front 24mm bar set to soft so just be careful, I remember after installing my rear bar I had it set to stiff and ended up drifting around a round about.
