I'm not exactly "gangster", but man, I'm loving Dr Dre's new Compton album haha.. Makes me feel so hardcore blasting it loud while driving.

I really like bikes, but to be honest, riding on Sydney roads terrifies me haha.. I got my bike learners, but never continued it. Both of my parents ride, and my sisters bf too. So we have a few bikes at home! Recently went out on a ride with them and a bunch of their biker mates. Me making chase in the Typhoon!

BMW felt quicker off the mark and more responsive with the throttle. Probably the advantage of a quick revving 6cyl and two small turbos. It didn't have any lag. But this feels like it's itching to unleash it's full power! Sleepy, if you will. I just need to unlock that haha. -

I don't know what the front pads are on the car currently, but they're due for a change. The rotors are definitely in need of a change! I'll see how we go after track day haha.. Most likely would need to be swapped out based on what you guys are saying! But that's a bridge I'll cross when I come to it, since I already have these other rotors to fit. Here is my car at Wakefield, fourth private track day I've attended with good mates of mine (first with this car). Stock other than the Whiteline sway bars, crappy tyres, and crappy brakes. I had the car for just over a week before hitting the track! Didn't have a chance to fix up anything on it haha. First shot is at the cabins, other two are from when a mate was taking it for a spin. I didn't go out to the on-track photo shelters this time (I did last time! Fun shooting from there), but someone else did! Happy I got some moving shots of my car for once, normally it's me getting it for everybody else haha. Thanks! I'm thinking 300kw atw max would be enough to keep me happy and (relatively) out of trouble. But having it all in one go could be a risky thing haha.. All in time! My BMW was pretty quick and responsive, kept me out of trouble too. Pretty sure it was between 220-250kw atw when I owned it. -

I had slotted RDA's and good pads on the BMW and did two track days on them with no issues. They didn't warp, crack, or anything? No squealing, fading, or warping while daily driving with them afterwards either. I guess Falcons are a bigger and heavier car, so I'll see how these go in December then haha. -

So it seems you can't edit a post after a while? To add to mod list: Whiteline Sway Bars TrueTrac Diff Centre And other goodies are RDA Dimpled/Slotted Rotors, Intima SR brake pads. Better and prettier light globes for even more RWKW bonus. Next track day is booked 22nd December, so I'll see how much better I go this time haha yay -

They're 19" Argents! And nope, I haven't done springs, stock height! And thanks haha yep, they sure can! Just seems most who drive them don't tend to know it's possible, right? Thanks I needed to step down the money I put in to cars, and this was great bang for buck! Plus I wanted to try the Aussie thing, always been keen on the Typhoons since they first came out!! Thanks for the links! CMS did my rear diff bushings, and fit my Truetrac diff centre. Forgot that one on my list, along with the Whiteline sway bars I fitted! I'll contact Pat once I'm ready to do more :D Damn it, why did you have to show me the Process West group buy! I'm meant to be behaving! Hahaha.. -

Here are some of my previous cars, since I like to post pictures of stuff. BMW 335i Audi A4 2.7tdi Subaru WRX STI Mitsubishi Galant VR4 Plus I had a 1997 Toyota Sprinter Trueno BZ-R and a 1997 Mazda 323 Astina Hardtop. -
Hey guys! So I've had this car for about 2 or 3 months now.. I forget already, my brain just isn't in it today! Anyway, I have intentions to build it up more, but all in time. I have a house build to ensure I have money for! So far this is what I've got: 19" FG Dark Argent wheels (Wanted TSW Bathurst, but budgets kicked in) 2.5" dual Venom exhaust in Stainless Steel Toyo Proxes T1S tyres with raised letters painted (Bored&Broke 10kw increase type thing) Future: Looking at a Process West package + dump pipe + tune (saving up - want to do it all in one hit) Lower springs and shocks (or maybe coil overs) Stereo goodies, get more hectic doof for more rwkw's. Clean up the front bar - covered in stone chips, plus there is some cosmetic damage on the front insert which annoys me. Was there when I got it, didn't bother me at first =/ Here are some pics:

I have finally just seen all the photos! Thanks guys!! Argh they look so good haha. You'd call it OEM Plus, right? Haha. Man.. I really like them, I think they look great! Concerned about finding fakes though, so need to do some hunting
