Post by: P10YRS on January 17, 2009, 11:53:23 am: Thanks for all the nice comments guys.. First of all i want to stop as much movement as i can of the engine with upgraded engine mounts as iv had 2 have warrenty work on my car due to the engine coiver brackets snapping due to engine movement! it has happend 3 times.. I think it was from the torque of the re-map but since i havent had the map on its been fine so i need to sort the movement out and then get the map back on...

Heres wat i want to do to the car..
Kw V2 Coilovers.
upgraded engine mounts.
anti lift kit think its called WALK or sumink..
full non-res miltek.
some colour coding.
19" split rims with stretched tyres.
phat ass stance.
Hid kit or Xenon conversion.

Like you i reckon moving to VF/VWR engine mounts is the only way to tie down this engine 'flap'

Cheers Gezza! :drinking: Thats why i bought this car was for the seats..

They are 8.5 by 19s all round but the rear offset is different so i can have a bigger dish on the back..

i forgot wat the et's are as im dnt rele understand all about different ETs lol.. Im new 2 all this modding..

I love Dish !!

I dont have any more pics of the wheels on the car but i will have some on sat as the car will be ready for ultimate dubs..
