Well I have a plan in place just need 5k to buy another engine but that's as much as im saying until it's in the car ill let people now but it's the usual stuff more suspension work, 4 pots etc
just badge the car up as an XND and fit steelies, lose the lights for standard ones and spoiler and your away!
I have some s16 badges might put them on
RE: sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - sam - 31-03-2014
Bit of an update, over the past week or so I've been buying new bits for the 6. My 20mm spacers turned up today, bought a new tyre for one of the vortex alloys and pretty much cleaned them before they all go on hopefully today, plan with the car now is more power and handling,
so alot more suspension work
looking into KAD 4 pot brakes
power flex bushes through out
putting my BBM beam mounts on today to
BBM engine mounts
buying a bucket seat after pug fest
17" Pro race 1.2's
and another engine, not going to announce what it is yet as I don't want to look like a fool if the plan goes abit south but it'll be worth the 5k it's going to cost me so that's the plan going to get the chassis and brake parts first
as soon as the cars been raised and on the vortexs ill upload pictures

personally I think it looks better
took about 4/5 hours todo all round. rear is sat at 40mm and front is at 50/60mm (back with the 8" springs at 250lbs) which has the nose pointing down which is what I wanted. few things to get used to the height of the car which is odd as im used to falling into it and now just sit and mostly the ride which is lovely handles like a beautifully and what a difference the beam mounts make! need to stop slowing down to bumps in the road that I used to take off when it was low and speed bumps that I can take abit faster now as doing 2mph down them started to get annoying so next on the list is 4 pots either going KAD, hispec or pb
sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - devils_fuel - 31-03-2014
Looks better fella, not the broken look
RE: sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - Matt - 31-03-2014
Duno if it's just me, but that looks like the same lows? Or at least 80mm 60mm rear? Wonder if the po will let you off that one
RE: sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - sam - 31-03-2014
I do have the comps in the back dude trust me it's alot higher doesn't help that I'm on half a slope ill get some pictures tomorrow
RE: sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - 7057sam - 31-03-2014
As said on fb looks better
I think with astor darker wheels aswell as them being more modern really make it look good
Yeah be interested to see what the plod say
RE: sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - sam - 31-03-2014
Cheers dude
I am thinking of a darker silver when I get some money for a refurb can't stand dark colours as it makes the tyres grey if you no what I mean
sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - devils_fuel - 31-03-2014
Day glow pink or yellow rims ftw
RE: sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - sam - 31-03-2014
I'm thinking yellow or green 4 pots though
RE: sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - Piggy - 31-03-2014
That looks soooo much sweeter!
Dont get me wrong, I love the comps, but I didnt think they suited the car so much.
Love it mate, looks nice n fresh
RE: sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - sam - 31-03-2014
I no what you mean dude think the comps would look better on a China or a diablo, I think it looks cleaner on the vortexs. Buying new plates for it tomorrow and taking the press plates off
RE: sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - mattyh24hdi - 31-03-2014

RE: sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - Eeyore - 01-04-2014
Always think these challengers look a bit too big for the car really. Sounds like you've got some great plans for it though!
RE: sam 's oem+ astor gti6 - sam - 01-04-2014
I thought so to dude look huge! As soon after pug fest I should have enough wonga for some pb 4 pots as they come with everything.
raised the car 10 mm as it was way nose end down and bought fresh number plates as they were definitely needed. I have pictures which I'll upload after dinner
