Makes a big difference to the exterior from something so small and simple!

Thanks man! Quite a few nugget lemon S2k's out there! Still a few things to tidy up to bring up to my standard but slowly slowly

SHIIIIIIIEEEE i wanna save parts like you too twin, but i'll save parts on a list, not in my room, because no munz HAHA

haahha a list is something atleast?! I love brakes and brake setups so sexy! Brake setup i eventually want in future is
Spoon calipers with DBA 2 piece rotors (if available) if not then 4000 series with ds2500 pads and braided lines
rear standard calipers paint same spoon blue ds2500 pads and the rotors i bought with braided lines also

[ryry668]

Mmm spoon calipers, yummm! Spoon calipers are on my list too, but I'm prepared to explore other BBKs like ksport or project mu. DBA is very yum too, I might go down that path too

Cheers mate! Major update coming soon probably after the weekend so stay tuned

Major update as promised!

Picked up a set of wheels that i couldn't say no to on the price!
Magnesium Blue TE37's
Front - 17x8.5+38
Rear - 17x9.5+40
They came with old tyres from Japan and the fronts were slightly too wide (235/45) so i purchased 2 like new RE002's for the front from a mate for only $150 cheering in 225/45 sizing.
The rear still remains the same from Japan which is 255/40 in Dunlop Direzza's.

So I fitted them today and headed down to garage 88 to get a wheel alignment as the front wheels where poking too much up top.
The rear end remained the same with 2.6 degree of camber and the front the most they could get out of it was 2.2. We were discussing my next option which was to grab some camber arms so I can achieve the 3 degree
I need for the front to sit perfect. Also thinking about dropping the front another 5-10mm.
The guys at Garage 88 have exceptional customer service and was a pleasure to deal with them. Will definately be going there for my alignments and tyre work in future.

For now photos!
Rear fitment


Front fitment (still too much poke up top of wheel)


Rear fitment x 2


Front fitment x 2 (lower another 5-10mm??)


255's from behind #datgain!


Full profile shot


The condition of the rims I would say is about a 7.5-8/10. In the future I want to get them resprayed again in magnesium blue and some fresh volk rays stickers on there.
I put on extended black lug nuts for the time being as I think it was the safest color to go with for now.

Till next time.

Looks good, never really been a fan of the mag blue though, I much prefer the gun blue colour.
But rear fitment looks spot on, I wouldn't change a thing. But do you get any scrubbing?
And yeah I'd drop the front a smidge and dial a little more camber in and then I think you'll be perfect👍

[kkierann]

so tidy, very nice

TBH, when i googled mag blue before buying i came up with a result of a brighter blue. Then when i saw these i was like oh...navy blue...none the less i still got them and love them althought i would love it to be a brighter blue.
Yep a slight drop at front and some more camber and I think it will be sitting perfect.
No scrubbing what so ever besides on the rear bumper which I trimmed a bit more
Rolled guards all round. If the front was lower on this camber i'd imagine it would scrub so once I get more camber I can drop it a touch more.

so tidy, very nice

Thanks mate !

[knobosaurus]

255's such a wide arse flipps haha but nonetheless, perfect fitment. Spot on with your first set of rims for the s2k
