Mozrav, they look alright, don't stand out much and look alright quality.
how do they come do they come with mounts or do you need to buy a mounting pod to install them? and do they look ok from behind? or do you advise i should get a pod for them?
and Draven i just can't stand people that go for show value, the money i would spend on a brand new monster tacho i could buy myself a rally spec cam shaft now i know which one i would get more fun out of.
i got the worst insult the other day, driving out of Tafe heard a guy say "Ricer" at me, ok i have mags and low profile tyres, and a loud exhaust but unlike most people i have a FULL exhaust system, extractors and everything so i'm going for flow not sound, bigger rims as i'm going lower in springs so by getting bigger rims i can maintain the same ground clearance and low profile tyres for the handling.
apart from the rims and exhaust tip hanging out the back thats the last i'm doing to my car the rest goes into suspension and engine/gearbox.
i just can't wait to race the riced up charades, saw one in fast fours, "hot fours" same thing.
and it was done up to look fully sick, fully sick custom interior racing seats ect. 18 inch mags, WRX bonnet scoop.
ok now what did he do to the engine? re-ground cam, and a unichip and exhaust, he needs those mods so it can keep up with stock standard charades after the amount of paint he put on the car and those sub boxes add a bit of weight.
can't wait to pull up beside him with my wanna be ricer wheels on and dump tip but close ratio gear box, higher ratio diff, brand new rally spec cam shaft with huge amount of extra lift and valve duration, shaved head "increased compression" and complet new aftermarket ECU and then see his face in my rear view mirror,
standard flywheel 64kw.
after mods at wheels 80Kw minimum.
now put that in a car that handles like a dream and only weighs 800kg and you have a pocket rocket.
i don't mind people doing up cars but if you do anything to the outside i feel you need to spend the same amount of money on the thing under the bonnet as well can't stand cars with bonnet scoops and so forth which do nothing or exhaust from cat back.
like WRX's we get in at work with mandrel bent 4inch stainless steel exhaust system from turbo back,
then you think about when the Subaru Australia Rally Team came to our work and they have 2 1/2 inch exhaust.
