painting brake calipers and drums red

 

i personaly recon black centres with the red calipers and drums would look hot as hahah

 

i need to lower it to its flying way to high at the moment haha and roll my gaurds the backs wont need much but the fronts are going to need alot of love hahah

Edited by mitch_mac

I like them alot! but i think you should leave them all silver and lower it.

 

+ stretched tyres :S just a little bit :y:

I couldn't agree more with that. Keep them silver in my opinion.

yeh I'm stuck between the two haha

 

yeh i want to lower it 3inch but i need to keep it legal cuz I'm on good behavour and i can't get done for anything haha so itll have to be 2 till i get my points back

 

yeh i need new tyres cuz the ones on there are shagged so they will be 165/65r14 and the whels are 14x7 and 0 offset so itll be alittle bit stretched =]

paint is on the calipers and drums looks ten millions times better hahah abit ruff but i will do it better once i have all the gear to take them right off and rebleed them

Leave them silver mitch. They look tough as, you need some more low and some camber up in this baby. You're a roughie with your caliper paint :lol: haha.

yeh alright the story on the lowering repco says they can't get me blocks like wtf so I'm stuck with lowering for abit and they can only do low springs 20-30mm not super lows 40-50mm witch i want the story is with the springs they will only do low cause otherwise the springs drop out or some shit argh pretty peaved bout it :osama:

 

and tim my friend the carona lcas are the same as a ke55 so itll do shit all for me camber wise literaly =[ so i don't no how i am going to get me some camber =S but there isnt any point till i lower it argh hate my life hahaha once again :abuse:

 

I'm pretty handy with a spray can hahaha :lol:

 

tim your friend little red spirit ask him if he will hook me up with a good price on one of the front lips for the early ke70s so i can put it on the ke55 :poke:

oh and i only use repco cause my mate works there and hooks me up but he can only get what he can get so another thing that shits me is that now ill have to pay the earth for what i want the blocks will be about 60bucks and the springs 180bucks max thats with what ever spring rate i want

165 on a 7 inch rim?? thats a lot of stretch!!! wheels look sick! i say jsst polish tha shit outta em!!

 

the tyres onn there already look fairly stretched.

Yeah boi thats what I am talking about. They look awsome :lol: :osama:

Definately leave them silver and polish them up. I would say that $180 for the spring is very expensive. Repco only pays $90 for a pair of springs from kings. Mind you I don't know what the increase is when you get them made to your own specs.

If i was you I would ring Fulcrum Suspensions I believe you should be able to get them cheaper without the discount your mate gives you. I was quoted $70 per springs from Pedders with a trade discount for 50mm lowered springs.

But you Rolla looks awsome I am very jelouse. Nice painting on the calipers and drums. don't worry about over spray you can't really see it when the wheels are on. Good work.

yeh the tyres on the back are 165 already and they have decent stretch

 

yeh i gotta figure out what i wanna go for i wanna go it as cheap as possible cuz it will change once i do the next stage of the build haha in about a year or so

 

so i wanna go two inch all round blocks and front springs

 

yeh with the brake calipers that was my therum hahah you can't see it once the wheel is on and it looks so good =]

 

yeh I'm going to polish the wheels up hella ive already just whiped them over but i will polish them up real good soon

 

if anyone has cheap tyres to suit these that are roady worth and will have abit of stretch let me no =]

 

oh and if you have 2inch blocks and 50mm lowered front springs not cut
