Couple of updates. Federals are now fitted as I've swapped over to my summer wheels. My impression so far can pretty much be summed up in one word. Wow. Next up a few suspension bits are being done. Big thanks to Nigel for the Cusco carbon rear brace. Hopefully this, along with the carbon front brace and the trd door stabiliser kit, will give the suspension upgrades a nice stable platform to work from. I've also picked up a whiteline rear camber bush kit in preperation for the suspension fitting. And finally (for now) these arrived today ready for fitting on April 10th:- First impressions are that they are a VERY well made piece of kit.

These arrived today:-

Ordered a set of these and they are due to be fitted April 10th.

The Federal 595rs-r's are going on tomorrow. Be interesting to see how they wear!

The other thing to consider Keith is different manufacturers tyre widths can be different - e.g. The Federals I have to go on are 215/45/17 but stacked up next to the Michelin's (same size) they are about an inch wider (so 5mmish each).

Paid up as I realised I hadn't got round to joining up!

Awesome! Wish I had your skills Nigel!

Agree with Jamie in the wheels - mine are about 2kg lighter than stock each and you can definitely feel a difference!

Most impact of the things I've done for that price would probably be the gear knob. Vastly improves the shift action and feel.

Excellent! The extra cut outs may well come in handy ;-) As Rob said let me know if you'd like payment now or if payment on collection during the easter holiday is ok?

If the rear isn't being taken by Adam I'll take it and the carpet Nigel.

If Keith doesn't end up having them I may well be interested Nigel :-)

There is no VAT on helmets is there? Mine was definitely VAT free when I bought it from DT last month.

At £335 each for 17's on the 5 spoke ones cheap wasn't what I was thinking!

That's an amazing deal!

Haha! It's a difficult question I appreciate. 'Hello mate. Can I have a look at your knob? Can I touch it....' :-)

Cheers for the tip. I did notice they already seem to have a few marks on them :-(

Tyres are now on my wheels:- And some nice shiny new nuts:-

I'm pretty sure there's quite a lot about this problem over on the frs forum.

Good to meet everyone again and awesome venue choice Keith!

Just ordered one too although got it from www.ffx.Co.uk as it's a little cheaper at £89

Very jealous Mark. Awesome looking bit of kit. Can't wait to hear it next week

We're going desert not starter so 2 x cajun chicken with sweet potato mash for us. Deserts don't show on the menu so we can't pre-order those.

Haha! Yeah may be a little loud...

A total bargain at this price! If I'd seen them before I ordered the 595rs-r's I'd have had them off you :-( GLWTS!
