Nice mate

Do you have the full specs on the turbo?

Is It a t04z cold side and 35r hot?

[tukangbaso]

New to this but it seems to be a t04z hotside? Xtrt04z part number on the hotside.

[MattyP]

Wow

Old school turbine

I rate the t04z as one if the best sounding turbos out there

Chuck a 7+7 billet wheel on it and a turbo side and you'll be laughing

Where abouts are you located?

And welcome bud

I've decided on what I will be modding under this months budget!! ( post xmas ..eww )

Front and rear swaybars

Blistein shocks

DBA slotted rotors and ferodo pads

just waiting on tunehouse to get back to me on supply of swaybars and installation of other bits.

Should keep me happy untill next month. Hoping to do a tune and exhaust next and finish it off with a nice set of shoes. Been looking around for wheels but am unsure at this point in time as so many options. Was thinking of a set of work emotions or similar in gold ..just dont know if it will go well with the current look of my car. Id like a really nice set of 19 inch deep dish non chrome or in gold to really set the car off but I need to do a bit of research on rims as I dont want a sh*tty set from ozzy tyres that weight half a tonne. However I think I will go down the black and gold look. Also need to order a black numberplate with gold writing.

Your on the right track, wheel choice can really make the look of a car. Something light weight with an aggressive offset but not silly amounts of poke.

Yeah definitely. I think I will be doing a lot of research on the wheels before I pull the trigger. I dont mind spending 2.5-3 k on rims if its going to make the car look like a million dollars.

Deep dish gold 19 inch on black hmmppphh!!

Tune house has a fairly good rep

I found them a tad pricy though

Good to hear mods are on the way

Cheers Matty.

Would you have any recommendations for just a fitting service around south west sydney or near my work in rosebery? as I will supply the parts I dont really need someone pricy like tunehouse as you said, however I dont want a shonky el cheapo job either.

It seems like you have mind reading abilities as these were the exact rims I was looking at yesterday.

I did a bit of reading on beamer lexus and porche forums and most people say theyre decent. Had a couple people on the porche forums say theyre quite heavy ( admittedly I havent checked the weight of these yet which I should ) , and some guy in the audi forums saying to "avoid any rim maker with a guido name like the plague" - LOL, but most people had positive things to say about them.

Also read up about how theyre made and theyre a decent quality rim, not gravity cast but rather low pressure cast so that's good to hear. Only thing im really worried about is that they might be a bit "too yellow"

im also looking at these at the moment

Work emotion D9R in the bronze.

Any opinions? I really like the colour.

With a nice offset it could look banging.
