Update 22/06/2010:

Just got back from Dougies after taking many happy snaps.. Top effort that he does and the lads damo and Josh..

5X114.3 and 6pot brembo swap are nearing completion. Rims needed rear camber bolts so that they could squeeze under the gaurds around 2-3 degrees negative camber (hoping there not going to make the car handle worse now?).

The dish on the new enkeis is 56mm whilst the dish on the old enkeis is 40mm thus massive clearance now over the brakes. Does make the brakes look smaller now.. hahah

The 6 pots look amazing and the rears match really well also.

Wheel alignment to be done on thursday then ready to hit the track on friday arvo.

Im really happy with the stance of the car now and gonna get out there rather than thinking of the widebody or anything else... haah

Hmm no i think thats all i grabbed.. Great workmanship by Rob at MMS..

He dissassembled the strut body, then cut off the bracket and to the jig welded in a spacer bracket inside and out. Then welded the bracket back to the strut. Beautiful work imo and the bracket is stronger than it came from the factory..

This also means no modifcations to the knuckle...
