Had aimed to get the guards rolled by the track day tomorrow, because they are going to scrub, but when Des from AutoFX rocked up to me on Tuesday to do it, I realised the night before I had removed the tool to change the wheels nuts out of the car, as I'd planned to swap them to the McGards that night. Got in the car and went to work the next day without even thinking about it. Needless to say, Des wasn't happy. So Luke from Dentcraft is going to be rolling my guards when he and Stuart get back from Melbourne early April.

I have been assessing my options, and with the little one in my life and being on one wage for the next 8 months, things are going to happen very slowly.

Future mods planned

H&R Springs for 35mm-40mm drop
Install STI Spoiler
Strut Brace Front and Rear (cusco / whiteline)
H Brace
Front and Rear Sway bars
Roll Centre Kit and ALK.

Then that will just about do it. I might reassess after that time and look at doing some power mods. Nothing over the top, just get some extra HP outta it.

oh and it turns out, those original nuts that lost all their colour are a brand called WePro, not fake Rays

Forged Aluminum Nuts, Bolts & Locks

So I'm going to clean them up and then they'll be back to being aluminium and then I'll offload them, if anyone wants them

Future mods sound good Kym.

On a side note: Darn these MY11's (engine-wise)...basic bolt-ons for the 52 and they are awesome.

Well, needless to say, the 255 wide Marshalls proved to hold their own today. Launching was completely different and they didn't break traction except for once when I heel toed into first and cutch kicked it a little today at the skidpan.

Also, didn't scrub, surprisingly
