That would look cool like your avatar pic And does your Macintosh stereo have an amp hooked up to it as standard?

[Mosti]

avatar pic are the exact same wheels as yours but in white. I love white rims on silver cars. white mesh rims with chrome lip is what im after haha

 

Yes to your amp question. Macintosh amp under the drivers seat

Left.

[nickknack]

Shiny one

[Mosti]

Both Fujitsubo's

[nickknack]

I have a legalis r I think like the shiny one, I like but if you're looking for something loud go the cannon style! Mine is not super loud, can hear it when you put your foot down though.

[Hypnotic]

The left is the 'Super legalis R' is it not? If so, I still pick that one.

[Mosti]

Yeah cannon style is the Super Legalis R. Much better sounding I'm just not sure if I want a that style hanging off the back of the car. Trying to find pics of it fitted, not many out there

I think this would look the best and would have the best sound overall when cruising

So just received my new DBA street series rotors from vicperformance on eBay. $135 delivered was a pretty sweet deal as far as I'm concerned. Can anyone point me in the right direction for a DIY rotor change? It looks pretty straight forward but there are probably a few tricks I should know before tackling it haha.

Pretty easy mate. However i would recommend changing pads at the same time. Reason being is your existing pads will be "moulded" to the shape of your old rotors and may not have optimal contact with the new rotors. Can cause hot spots on your pads and bake them. It's not a pretty sight pulling up at the lights with smoke billowing out of your wheels.

1. Remove wheel
2. Unbolt caliper from hub ( 2x17mm bolts on the back) and pull off rotor.
2.5 May have to remove the dust covers if still attached, usually 3x 10mm bolts. Leave them off and bin them.
3. Give the old rotor a tap to dislodge it from the hub.
4. Slap on new rotor
5. You may have to push the brake calipers apart a little to clear the new rotors as they will be a little thicker than your old ones , just push against the pads a bit to give extra clearance. Don't push too hard as you may cause the brake master cylinder to leak out brake juice.
6. Bolt caliper bake in place. Check your pedal travel is all good before you put the wheel back on.
7. Put wheel back on.

Done!
