Out of interest MM, How much did you pay for it?

 

I got one a few months back and just wanna know how good my price was. I got exactly the same one from A.I. too.

 

Think it was somewhere around the $180 mark from memory, Would have been cheaper If I'd Had got the boss to talk them down, But he was out and I was in a hurry to order it..

Awrr... no more boating !

As of this afternoon both brake calipers are back together ready to go back on.. (Special thanks to Curtis at work helping me out with them)..

 

Also this morning I managed to degrease the hubs and knock the old bearings out as well..

 

Plan on cleaning up the hubs tomorrow and giving them a quick shot of paint.

 

Then I need to get the rotors machined..

Looking great! it'll look like your struts and all that goes with them are new of the factory floor! great to see your keeping your act clean :dance:

[Medicine_Man]

Managed to clean up the rotors and hubs today and gave them a quick shot of black where they were rusting..

 

Will put the bearings in the hubs tomorrow and get the rotors machined next week..

[Medicine_Man]

Got the wheel bearings in today and the rotors machined this afternoon, Slapped the hubs back on the rotors too :)

 

Still awaiting cambertops and adjustable coilover setup hopefully some time next week..

Yesterday I Finally picked up the last "goodies" stopping me from getting the coilovers in. A set of ae86 Cusco cambertops.

 

This morning I managed to put the backing plates on the struts and get the cambertops on.

 

This afternoon the wheel bearings/hubs were greased and the rotors went on..

 

Rear shocks were ordered (KYB Excel G Part #343113 VB-VN Commodore Wagon) and have arrived, Just waiting now to get my hands on a set of lowered 5KG springs..

How much did the camber tops set you back if you don't mind me asking. Looks like a good build :cool:

[Medicine_Man]

They are somewhere around the $300 mark depending on how bad the exchange rate is..

After some steering arm dramas as some people will know, I have finally got the new suspension in. Quite a bit lower than it was before, Still need to get the exhaust raised a bit as its the lowest point on the car since lowering it..

 

Took it for a test drive and it feels miles better, was partially to clean out the oil the f@$kstick mechanic put in the exhaust for shits and giggles..
