i been thinking about thoses wheels but in black for mine what offset are thoses??

Wheels actually look very well. Just get a set of coilovers, Slam car onto wheels and your sorted. Is that a Viper Alarm you have?

+30 mate. not much choice in offsets on those wheels. the only different offset is for the 9.5"- +15.

Derek, yep, its a viper alarm.

Definitely needs some lowering. I'm thinking about getting the Nismo S-Tune non adjustable coilovers, as I don't want anything too stiff and only want to lower it about 30mm anyway, or maybe some Tein Super Street.

Easily the best tyres I've tried so far. I've driven them fairly hard in the dry, but I still don't think I've found the limit of their grip yet. They are very 'grippy'. They seem to generate less road noise as well.

So far, they appear to be in another league when compared with the tyres I've previously tried: Federal 595, Falken Azenis and cheapos like Sava and Fulda.

Interesting to see how they perform in the wet...

How do you find your Bendix pads? Are the grippy?

I'm trying to get Endless CC-X

What do you reckon?

 

[dcoghlan]

You won't be dissapointed with the CC-X
easily one of the best street pads I have ever used...

The Ultimates are a good relatively inexpensive street pad. Good initial bite, not overly dusty, but a little squeaky. Good improvement over stock. I have heard that they disintergrate fairly quickly on the track however. So if you are thinking about some track work, you will have to yank them out.

I'd say the Endless CC-X pads are in a league above the Ultimates.

Ahh.. cos atm, CC-X costs twice more than Bendix but CC-X is 30 or so% off retail so i'm tempted to get CC-X.

I guess I might go for CC-X even though a good comment of your Bendix
