Yeah I'm looking at suspension upgrades in the near future, hoping to get nice even wear. The tyres are pretty low on tread anyway, I've had em on for a good year and a half, they are the first set I replaced, and I've put 60000ks on the thing so it's been a happy partnership.

Been meaning to get alignment done for ages too, WA suspensions probably unless someone has a strong recommendation otherwise.

Wow that's a good talking up for Wilkinsons. Guess I'll be making enquiries!

As for the KU31's Grug:

Hi Steven

235/45/17 KU31 $124each

Freight = Pair $60 Set $115

Delivery to you is 5-7 business days

I got quoted $175ea at KMart, not sure if that was fitted. Rough price for fitting and balance is $35 odd I think for a pair? Also hassling Hiro about the Federals he sells though I'm happy with the Kumho KU31s so unless the Federals are way better grip and comparable life I probably won't change.

Also, I spotted a blue B series ute, I think FPV, with a blue XFT sticker across the front windscreen parked up on the side of McCouy St in Myaree today, was that you John?

Karl has advised that the 595EVOs are better grip than the KU31's. Might use 31's for the fronts from now on and 595's for the rears...we'll see. If only I lived on the east coast I'd save loads on delivery from these mobs!

I have my gauges put together, extention wire leads soldered, now just need to get time to cut into my BOV vac line (?) to fit the T-Piece and connect the gauges to the cars wiring. Hunting a new sandwhich plate I think as the one I bought is designed for remote mount filter/cooler setup which I don't have...live and learn!

Still wondering about painting my stocko 17's a shiny black to go with soon-to-be new feeling car.

Should do my tax and buy some new suspension!! So slack.
