Another update: gearbox hasn’t gone back in, I’ve delayed it going back in so I can get my new coilovers fitted at the same time. I’ve ordered a set of MCA race reds so they’ll be here in 3 weeks then the ute will be towed up to Develo Pro to get put back together. There is light at the end of this tunnel :D:D:D:D

Nice, what spring rates did you go for?

12 & 13 kg. Got them valved for performance over comfort. They will most likely be stiff but with the 18s and decent sidewall hopefully some of that is negated.

Well finally after 9 months and half a house deposit later it’s back on the road :D:D





And I’m not sure if I posted this before but I had the HSV wheel retrimmed in black alcantara and a white leather ring at the top. Feels so awesome compared to the factory wheels!



Please ignore the dirty mats, they are the old ones I have brand new ones in there now!

Ooooh. I like that wheel very much! Could you share the costing and company that did it for you?

Adelaide company by name of M&C motor trimming. $600 to re do in alcantara. Not cheap once you factor in the wheel cost as well. But it feels awesome in the hands and I think completely worth it.
