yup typo -.-'

By the way, i'm close to buy a Tarox sport kit

 

[gingers3]

Someone else said there was a ridge on the hub which needed to be ground off, is that correct or do these spacers go straight on ?

this problem is if you want to fit less than 12 mm spacers on the rear , the lip on the hub is too long for the spacer to seat correctly

dont know about in italy but here in the uk cheap chinese tyres are pure rubbish better off wrapping elastic bands round your rims ! lol
your rims look good though , are they 8x18 et 35 ?

Nokian make very good winter tyres. Often regarded as one of the best available.

Nice car, sensible upgrades

Nice, if and when you upgrade to Tarox what brake kit did you have mind.

Initially I thought about going for tarox setup. The basic one that's fitting in 17' weeks.

Then I decided for a more OEM look but keeping the same stopping force and reliability so brembo Calipers + tarox c83 + Ferodo ds2500 (next DSUNO).

As for now the setup is really good! Massive stopping force almost too much. I think I'll swap all expect Calipers on the rear.

Next upgrade is the clutch

Nice Rims! Are they OZ Racing Superforgiata?

Any details / pictures of the air intake?

What a great build. Love the instagram too!

Man I love the cut out sections of the rims spokes, great colour.

Oz HyperGT 8x18!
I'm leveraging the standard airbox 'cause it's the only way to have fresh air to the cone filter.

Thanks for posting the image of your intake!

Did you go with a hybrid IS38? I assume it must go like a rocket at high RPM’s, how does it feel at lower RPM’s, is there any noticeable turbo lag compared to your stage 1 & 2?
