haha well im glad it wasn't just me!!! hahah go the interceptors you'll be very safe!!!
-
good idea, just bad selection of wheels.... nasty csa/mullins .... id prefer to see them team up with the likes of BBS etc for some class .. however that would carry a $$$ price tag in a way I think it cheapens the FG running around optioned on these... that's just me anyways
-
should notice a sligggght difference induction.. I would be hoping you could hear the turbo spooling all the time however... panel filter or not otherwise id be taking it back and asking for your requested xr6t not xr6

I few guys on here are already rocking them though For the stock fpv item id go with with defi Boost & Oil Temp or Pres

woooo very nice!! thanks for hte compliment.. yeah I love the way it sits and wouldn't have gone any lower as I think the handling would start to suffer. I plan to put whiteline sway bars in next and potentially throw some koni's in next as well. what does the brute ute setup contain? -

well dropped her off this morning and picked it up this arvo... OMG im in love .. its actually lower than I was expecting dunno if he went lower than first quoted either way I dont care im just happy with teh result!! and it has even settled yet so may get a tiny bit more? With Leafs are the same as normal springs which settle or are they just as they are once done? ill post some pics as soon as I can Nathan does A1 work and they attn to detail is awesome... he spent 1hr making sure he got the alignment perfect too (it was already past 5:30pm at this stage) which is customer sevice you wouldn't get at place like the TTF and other such establishments mark -

you do raise a very good point there!! I just want to improve the appearance and reduce the bodyroll as much as possible at the end of the day I guess.Nathan didn't believe I would need the camber kit with 25mm front and 50mm at the rear he said anything more than that you would want to consider the kit. I really need to stop looking at pics of utes with superlows!! its killing me haha that's good to know... ive had trouble finding any pics with this amount of drop while running 19's... it would be awesome if I could see some so I know exactly how it will look with 19's. I'm sure there are some around ppl just haven't disclosed the amount they have lowered their utes. -
I know that's what I love about them 9.5's mmm decisions!!
-
tough as!! ive always loved these wheels on skylines and the like.. after seeing these im really considering a set of these!! in the following fitment 18x8.5+30 (front) 18x9.5+38 (rear, not sure if rolling will be required) how fat does the 9.5 look.. soo agressive! ... do you have any shots which are not a side on profile? cheers

Thanks mate, the more I think about it.. im more inclined to go with his option as he is a professional in the field.. and honestly I wouldn't mind being able to go in and out of drive ways every now and then after browsing through several posts im thinking lows with reset leafs 50mm at the rear will be fine (especially once the 19s or 20s go on). I'll see how she handles then im thinking I will probably be looking to throw some bilstein or konis in at a later date to stop any floating sensations at higher speeds. Its booked in for Monday coming, so I'll post some pics of it once its done. Cheers -
Hey guys, Been a lurking for a while after coming from the 4cyl turbo space.. and now have myself a clean ba mk2 turbo ute in silhouette. driving for 2 weeks now im just craving handling (well improved handling hehe). I went down to Avantage suspension an hour ago and spoke to Nathan. Originally after reading many posts on here I had my heart set on Kings Super Lows up front and in the rear (leaf replacement obvoiusly) ... Nathan from Advantage however tried to talk me out of it, now im a little confused on which way to go.. he said that running those will render the car illegal.. so im assuming the lowest point of the car will be below 100mm with this setup? He then went onto say he recommends lowering the front by 25mm (I assume kings lows0 and then he'll reset the rear leafs to 50mm lower than stock. What do you guys, do shops like this just say that to cover their asses? but will still go ahead if your willing .. or do you think 25mm up front / 50mm at the rear will be fine if im to upgrade the 18's to either 19's or 20's this year ... I guess my aim is to have the front tyre level with teh guard and the rear just a little tucked with bigger rims.. sorry for the long and hopefully not repetitive post.. any one else had superlows fitted at Advantage? Cheers Mark.
