He no longer works at the wreckers...

The bar you will need is a Rev C, but was made from late 00 - early 01.
The late 01-03 Gen3's were either a Rev D or E and had different headlights, bonnet and probably quarter panels too.

So recently i was comparing The Panis to the other Billy I got, and found out my Rear Sway bar has been replaced.. its actually a 22MM one, makes sense why Panis handles so much better than all the other RX's i have driven, i always thought it was cause the previous owner had the struts and springs matched.
its on kings but they are rex up front and lib at the rear. and im fairly sure the struts were adjusted also cause the suspension joint had a record of my car coming in for some rebound adjustments or something.

anyway, Looking into getting some Camber bolts and replacing the front end bushes in the coming weeks.
as soon as Panis's brother is sold Money is going into the Halfcut, hopefully i can get something with nice Alloy Control arms ;)

Not long now guys!

I have some camber bolts I may not need Ty.

Im fitting some tyres and doing an align tomorrow, so I'll see how the camber goes.

FKN OATH! They are almost new too,
seriously just stumbled upon these too... this is the auction i saw and sent the seller an email asking if the wheels were for sale.. the rest is history :)
http://www.ebay.com....=item43a5fec55e


Morgs.. I love BBS wheels, i always liked the Snowflake 16s but i wanted to get bigger, i thought about the B4 wheels but they don't fit 4pots and i don't really like the close together style that much
they look smaller than they are.. these look nice, i never wanted to go 18's cause Rubber would kill me, and the ride would be unbareable with my current suspension setup.. 17s are where its at..
also these are Forged so nice and strong.. all the better for going off cliffs :P

I wouldn't have bought them if the tires were no good.. but there is just over $1k of rubber on these 4 wheels... and they were cheaper than that

You didn't have time to fit them, but you had time to place them next to your car, take lots of photos of them, upload it to Waltsbook and to here.



HURRY UP AND FIT THEM ALREAY, IT TAKES 15 MINUTES! :D





P.S. Jason, those tyres are mindfucking me. Weird.

Ty if you wanted some 17" BBS's you should have just asked :P

As soon as she hands it to you, slowly take of your pants, then, while staring her straight in the eyes rub it against the tip of you penis, while continuing your painfully intense gaze whisper to her;
 
"My eye is watering, this might be a bit hot"

I should just convert to single, right?

Sooo, i spent some money today...

Booked the car in to have the Tint Re-done all round, 20%

bought one of these..
Posted Image

also bought these.. not sure why, but meh its the **** factor lol
Posted Image

Bidding on this.. most probably will win it.
Posted Image Subaru Brand Lock Nuts, with Unique key on them that if you loose the Key, you need to go in with the card that has a code on it and get them to order in a new one.

Also tossing up on some of these..
Posted ImageDepends how much they come back at.. if i can get them for the right price (which is really cheap actually) i'll probably get them.

Next week i hope to have a new alarm fitted too... Mongoose M60S, i could wait to have the Loom from the Halfcut done, but speaking to my mates housemate (who owns the shop) if i take him the looms to get them merged, he will hard wire it into the loom tighter than a fish's arsehole at no extra charge to the normal loom work.

oh and Pics of the wheels i was meant to update ages ago..

Oh yeah.. i installed some new Splits up front. Took me ages to get the fkn Spacers right. didn't have the stock speakers nor the new speaker box to use as a template for either :dash2:

I Forgot to take Before and After shots but to fit the Wheels i had to get the Guards Rolled and also get them flared on the front cause they are 225's it was rubbing on hard bumps and hard cornering.
Got it done at $50 a corner.. did an awesome job.. and the flaring had brought the whole guard out about 1 - 1.5 inches.. amazing what he was able to do, but now i have no issues... loaded the car TO THE MAX! going up to Hotham, and no scrub, and on the way down.. i did a fair bit of high speed cornering lol and no issues what so ever!

Oh and just remembered looking at the photos..

Bought some new Philips White Vision Globes for the Foggies, just to match in with the HID's a bit better, but didn't want to remove the functionality of the Fogs by going anywhere near blueish.
