I forgot to mention that the friday that the rolla came off defect Luc came round with his shockers and leaf springs.
SO the ol girl has got Gabriel shocks in the rear and some newer lowered leaves. rides so much better. i can believe that i put up with flips and shagged shocks for so long. gotta pay Luc for the shocks and line up another set of leaves.
Next on the list is new brake pads and shoes and rear drums possibly. and new gabriels in the front then i can put the new lowered springs in the front. should handle like a factory fresh rolla. hopefully.
Took it for a hills run last night and i have the JDMs back on due to clearing the defect. The sound of screaching tyres around corners sounded so good for some reason. :bash:
Also, ive noticed while driving, when you put your foot down it seems to lag a little bit till the revs build up a bit then goes pretty good.
Considering its just a stocko 4k with a 3k head it goes soo muich harder than the old one.
I'm gonna need to put a resi in the exhaust soon and fix up the hole where the pipe meets the extractors as Luc cut it too short when he was using the system. i think that could help a little bit as it seems to lack a bit in the bottom end torque which could explain for the laginess explained above.
