[CNBLU]

im nearly half way there with my pride and joy. 2007 has a been a learning curve for myself with the astra and getting to understand how to get the maximum out of her. So for 2008 let the good times roll on....

1. Fit Eboost2 Boost controller (next week)
2. Fit uprated clutch
3. Fit Phantom Grip LSD
4. Fit APR rods and bolts (maybe forged pistons aswell)
5. Fit 80mm VXR air flow meter
6. Fit Bilet lightened flywheel
7. try to get around 200kw atw

Youll want lower profile tyres if your going to lower it (By what i see in the sig)

What profile are they?

i have 225/40/18

sig is photoshopped, my car isnt that low.

Well depending on how low you go that profile will scrub something shocking

215/35/18 and i still scrub abit when i hit a hole or dip and thats with Rolled gaurds

it only scrubs when i drive fast over uneven road (eg parramatta rd) or go into a pot hole

i might get stiffer suspension rather then lower...

[CNBLU]

it needs lowering tzunzski

This year i hope to do alot of things, unfortunately if i do one thing, it means i can't do the other...

Scenario 1.
Modify my current car
-engine work
-brakes
-stereo
-wheels (maybe)

Scenario 2.
Keep the car as is and buy a motorbike

Scenario 3.
Sell the car and buy an Astra Turbo or another performance vehicle (with a manual)

Scenario 4.
Sell my current car, buy a cheap car and put a deposit on a house

IMHO having been there done that, I'd seriously consider/take on option 4

Your still young Steve with plenty of years ahead of you to enjoy your car interests, considering cars just keep getting better, get some serious equity behind you first and then go for it in the future

good advice... and exactly what I have planned for, maybe not 08 but definitely 09 - but the car will stay! Honestly though, my NY resolution is "STOP SPENDING ON THE ASTRA" its bloody addictive --- i need professional help .

[d.c.]

Well having only bought my car about 4-5 months ago I have plenty of mods planned for this year.

1. Eibach springs and Whiteline swaybar (have both need fitting)
2. New wheels and tyres (this week)
3. Smooth car of badges and wing
4. CAI and FMIC
5. Exhaust
6. Re-map

Then depending on how impressed I am by the Astra I will decide on whether I want to or need to go any further.

Although I would really like a LSD because on the tighter roads where I live even with the standard power it could do with one.
