great choice in car mate, excellent colour too... how do the pbr brakes compare against the stockos? is it worth the $$$?

[SS_Fury]

they are basically replacement calipers being only twin piston, however the pads are really good. I got them as a present for a bit of bling coz my discs had warped and i was getting brake shudder - so i got the vented discs to go with them. I dare say they would be the same as the stock brakes, however the pads and discs make a diff imo. Stops really well and fast. They were around $400 from repco for the pbr calipers with the pads. Discs were $70 each - can prob get em much cheaper if ya shop around.

Very nice, where did you get the ss dash mat from?

[SS_Fury]

auto 1 in mandurah - they send an order to queensland and they do it for you...theres a few styles etc you can pick from - cost $55 including postage and everything it was a great lil mod lol

[Markus182]

hey im from Mandurah! had a look at those matts a while ago, didnt like the ss badge they stitch on it, just didnt match the rest of my car.. sweet ride
how much did the zorst set you back, did u get it done down here or in perth?

[SS_Fury]

you can get them without the badge too i believe. Would be cheaper too. Zorst was about 800 and had it shipped over east from sureflo and got tyrepower to chuck it on and straighten the tips. Sounds good, especially with the air charger.

You can get those dash mats from super cheap aswell. Same deal, order them and they send them, im assuming it would be from the same company.

Nice ss mate.. red highlights here and there look schmick

Car looks great Tim. 3.73's would be a good choice. Diff gears make a lot of difference.

I'm coming down to Mandurah in a couple of months, have to catch up for a cruise or something.

[SS_Fury]

absolutely...diff gears are next on the list and perhaps mafless tunes...i tell ya that k & n charger roars like a trooper!

[Angelo_XLR8]

damn fine car mate. love the dash mat

[vxclubby85]

does that k&n give a nice sucking sound?? or you dont really hear it?

[SS_Fury]

bloody oath ya hear it - more like a roar that sounds like its from the exhuast more than a 'suck'. If you can seal them, i rate them.

[vxclubby85]

ok sweet cos im getting one cheap as from a mate

[KPWISHN]

does that k&n give a nice sucking sound?? or you dont really hear it?

The aircharger is a really neat unit for a stocker. As SS_Fury says you can hear a increased intake noise but the noise you really hear is from the exhaust. When put an Aircharger on mine the major thing i noticed was that my car was instantly louder from the exhaust.

As you can see they look pretty neat as well.
