Shelly Bay Sprint yesterday. Only managed 10th place unfortunately. I haven't entered this event for 10 years and it's very technical with an unforgiving bite if you make a mistake. And I had my

Considering its just a piece of bent cut & bent ali you could make some coin getting a bunch done and sold off

Got to be one of the more obscenly marked up bits of car parts haha

Yesterday got some 215\'s on the 9\'s, $100 bucks for both fitted and balanced heaps of tread left. Having a look at some d2\'s today and deciding if I want them.

Photo of one, doesn\'t really show the stretch that well though. Should have taken a photo before they went on/i let it off the jack.

Gonna give up on the phone camera I think, it\'s been blurry lately :/

redid the way the front bumper mounted, sits so much more solid now

Also lowered the back a bit more yesterday while I had the wheels off to try even the height out, the 215\'s make it sit lower than it did on the 225\'s too.

looks good! - any guard rub?

Thanks man

Very rarely in the back now with the smaller tyres, rubs in the front when turning fast.

Going to rub like a bitch with bolt-on spacers

half dismantled the front end to do a LCA swap, have run into a problem... the taper bolt on the bottom of the hub appears to be a different size....

basically, the existing taper bolt is to narrow to seat into the alloy arm... is there an adapter for it?

Yes I have read some thing about an adapter, i would also see if you can get a different lower ball joint

Decided that the front strut brace I\'ve had on my BL5 for a few weeks was making sweet FA difference, so decided to remove it. Managed to snap one of the top hat bolts off in the process, so now have to get a new bolt or top hat fitted. Sigh.

On the plus-side, arranged to get the steering wheel controls hooked up to the aftermarket stereo tomorrow. No more nearly driving into the back of cars trying to find the damn volume buttons (flat, smooth buttons that can\'t be felt with fingers. Nice one, Pioneer).

Also cleaned the wheels... again. Second time this week. Still amazed how much dust EBC Greenstuff pads produce with normal around-town driving.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
