As you can see from my picture though I have stock wheels bonnet protecters and head light protecters so grandpas car but I like it protects it. Got a little scared though the other day the wife had to go to a funeral down the coast so she took the XR for its first spin down the Clyde Mountain she said it went great with a big smile on her face. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine does and it definitely helps with approvals mines gotten the car sideways on her way to work lol. I ran my nsw rego all the way out too, definitely a good idea. I Ain't got none of the protectors, but since I do a lot of kms I've got the rock chips to prove it. At least no grandpa effect though gettin all the chips repaired soon anyways.

If it has then its DBA 4000 T3 time .... Or machine the rotors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulletime Donating Members 937 Member For: 14y 5d Gender: Male Posted 02/03/13 11:58 AM Share Posted 02/03/13 11:58 AM Yeah u hit the speed limit on the highway easily in 3rd and that's when it's just warming up and just starts begging to keep going, definitely know the feeling. 160-170 at Wakefield is fun, hit 4th on the straight :DYeah brake shudder is very off putting, especially at highway speeds. Good feeling once sorted though, DBA 4000 t3s with some good pads and brake fluid and you'll be amazed at the difference!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danielsmith Member 87 Member For: 11y 11m 22d Posted 02/03/13 12:33 PM Share Posted 02/03/13 12:33 PM I didn't need to pull up in a hurry as there wasn't anyone around me but did notice it when I did apply the brakes. So then I just eased of the brakes and let the car slowly pull itself up.I was talking to my brother the other day and he does some computer work for an oil engineer. He gave him 5 litre's of oil that he engineered for some racing teams. Apparently it makes the oils we all buy look stupid. Was told that you can get over 30 thousand kms out of it and it will still look as new as the day it went in when they drain it. I am going to try and get some. Here is hoping anyway, my Bro did say he should be able to get it for me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
