No worry, as we are almost there to raise 15 millions for the Buggati group buy, if we are under the budget, we can get a GT-R as an extra safty car or for run our dogs.

However, last time when I had to speed up in order to follow cntlaw (otherwise I will be losing my way), the cornering performance is satisfactory.
thanks for your input, I know that the OEM RFT's are crap also, and it would make much diffrence to even change to an entry sport tire..

Maybe Cool can comment on this as well

Hi Riku, The GT-R looks very big on the outside, at TAS, it was parked beside a LS600H and I thought that it was even wider then the LS600H. I guess that that doesnt mean the interior is comfy like that. haha, but that car is a monster for sure...

Stiffer shocks might be felt more 'bumpy' only over bumps, but it has the advantage of more road feel and high speed cornering; so really need to find out what the ride comfort really is, in general driving condition.

Right on, with you guys having said it. maybe I just might go towards the 20 bound adj.

Lastly, would that price of the 20 bound ADJ sachs be price equivlent to the price of lets say... a PSS9/10?

FYI, RikuE90 is a fat man weighted 190 lbs, althought he has a 325i E90 and used to be a Evo owner, however, he also owns a Honda SUV which is really his daily driver.

The Sachs coilover and Pss9 are close in price.

Frankly, after i got my E90 lowered with the SACHS, I drive more carefully esp. over the speed bumps and going up/down slope in carparks.

Anyway, congrats to your new mod, and interested to see pics or perhaps a meet soon to see the real thing!!!

This is for the reverse light at the tail light. PIAA called it Mirror White.....it actually a slightly chromed blue bulb. So, you will get white light when put in reverse, but when people looking from behind you, they will not see a blue bulb behind your reverse lens.

Oh, thanks. So, is it something similar to the Solaris bulbs? Let's have a look after either you or Cool put them on?

I used to have the Solaris bulb for a while, but I don't like it since it is kind of dim.

Then I switched to this PIAA mirror White bulbs for about a year now......it is much brighter than the Solaris.

I also used to have Solaris on, yes, VERY DIM -> can be dangerous if it doesn't alert the pedestrians as these lights are intended to be. My Solaris bulbs were burned out few months ago, so I reversed to the stock bulbs already.
