How you finding the 5kg springs like stiffness wise the bit hard or soft I'm want some pretty stiff springs for my ta22 which i believe you used to own?, just wondering if i should go stiffer than 5kg

 

cheers

 

They feel great at the moment, although i could do with some good shocks as these are too long now.

 

Stiffness wise as i had explained to me by Ryan (SLO-030) i wouldnt go higher than 5kg for a street car as it puts alot of load through every suspension component of the car. I can't see any reason why you would go higher unless its a track car. Mines stiff so i reduce a little travel as my wheels hit the guards.

Decided to take a couple photos today, still waiting on my GT grill and a couple other bits and pieces before i take some good photos.

 

Mirrors were silver but it wasen't doing it for me so i painted them a dark charcol.

 

Rear end will be coming down a little lower but at the moment it rubs hard, need the guards rolled first! Overall pretty subtle fitment so i shouldnt get into too much trouble with police (fingers crossed).

Yep its darker, i couldnt get the paint matched perfect so it will do for now. Getting a few things touched up so it will be redone then.

 

Just a few more minor things, exhaust goes on this week, new plates and a few other minor bits and pieces.
