Dark Arrow (tmavá šipka) - an evolution.

[bluefrog]

Went to get some awesome advice about the .:R from Zak and Ralf at Trutrack today, thanks Brad for the recommendation btw, they reckon my first priority should be tyres. I'll definitely be taking the Octy back there for swaybar and WALK, and then coilovers and brakes .. at least once I find some extra coin!!

.. currently leaning away from the Eagle F1 A2's towards the Nitto NT05's:

I've heard good things about Nitto

One of my mates here in Sydney bought Zak's Clio. Totally awesome car except for the tyres (Kumho KU31). Apparently there's a special tyre for them. Transformed the car.

well folks the black beastie should be down at the docks now so I will hopefully be able to post up pics soon!

in the meantime I couldn't help myself and did a quick amateur photochop of the back end with new wheels

.. and though I might be planning a little too far ahead, I'm liking the sound of this, a lot.

Horrified? Why? Is she not a fan of the black on black on black or the impending $$$ associated with your "to-do-list" of mods? LOL...Looks nice and stealthy I rekon.

Study is killing and boring me to tears. At times, I've been looking up on youtube for rc drift cars instead of things to do with my study. More recently like today, I've spent a few moments watching vids on botfly's being removed from peoples necks, scalp and backs and extraction of mango-worms from dogs (yuk...but interesting...and all the reasons why not to travel to Africa and other tropical places where mosquitos and flies rule the airspace) *sigh*

oh yummy .. lucky I've eaten already

actually she's more worried about the potential power gains .. maybe the new wheels and tyres might change her mind?, hehe

Why? Is it due to the concept of more power = faster driving = more dangerous and more fines or more power = reliability issues and hence possibility more $$$ to fix things?

[bluefrog]

the former .. I told her that surely it would make overtaking safer
