You may of already done it but you need to be sure the clearance is 100% correct on the diff, when I changed from oem bearings to those koyos the clearance was way off, plus the likely difference in the diff' will make a big difference

Ive seen many people change final drives and diffs with out checking or shimming them

Forgot to upload this update.
Decided that my HSD's weren't going to be up to the job after having them for a year and half on my old EK
So took the chance at some brand new premium competition spec yellow speed coilovers.
20kg front/16kg rear Spring rates

First thoughts.. They are already far superior to the HSD's straight out of the box.
Surprisingly much lighter than the HSD's
Alot more damping settings
Preload already set from factory
The Build quality is much better and they even come with all new nuts! Haha

Cannot wait to put these to the test properly now.





 
Had to cut up a mishimoto rad hose to fit them water temp sensor adaptor, wasn't happy about doing this but had to be done :cool:



Perfect fit..

These look great, really considering a set for the EP :D
 
I have Yellowspeeds in my EG for a while now and I like them. Good quality coilovers for the money. Luckily I picked mine up before tegiwa copped onto to them and became the European dealer too so I got a nice deal on mine compared to prices now lol

Ahh cool, I didn't think even tegiwa's prices were to bad to be honest
 
Got my thermo formed lexan with OEM borders today from Templar performance

So far out the box they are awesome, quality is great and the rear quarter window, being curved fits perfectly and doesn't look out of place like some flat windows you get.

Should be getting these fitted sometime soon hopefully along with a windscreen.







Also fitted my twin 12" fans, there looks like a fair amount of space in the bay for them but just wasn't liking how close they were to everything and I'm yet to mount the water pump. So they went on the outside and say nicely in the duct :)





Nicely terminated with some weather sealed connectors

 
Mega build m8 , love it and removable slam panel is very nice touch ,
Top top marks m8.
