Kiddha buddy - saw your motor last night approaching the M4 roundabout near the Hayes bypass - it really looked the business and the orange in the rims were popping loudly - me and mrs were out on a jog and both thought it all looked spot-on - great motor and fantastic mods!!

1 x resin gel plate on it's way thanks to Raj at FullHouseCustoms - also the founder of my Rial centre caps, boot badge and steering wheel badge

The plate is shortened, legally spaced and all that good stuff lol. On show for Players, come to The Custom Cars stand for a sneak peak of my new wider dishes, some heavy bass with good music and a good laugh with some top guys.

See you soon guys!

EDIT: I just want to give a massive massive thanks to Shaun GAZA01 for coming all the way from his ends to help me last night with spacers etc. Thank you so much!

Ok so .. new bigger dishes are now on thank to dips for accomodating me last minute. Got some contis 5p in 235 35 19 on at the front.. so now its 10j et 31 using 7mm spacers, and its poking so nicely..which is perfect for my set up.

I juse went and had my geo redone so using the Hunter alignment... I had feont camber adjusted and rear tweaked.

Now its currently
F: 2.15 camber toe out
R: -2.5

So happy with the front I'm over the moon. That gay arch gap has now gone and I can finally put to bed the feont adjustment. Short of a few v minor tweaks at the front it's perfect. If I could go.back now I'd ask to knock the fring camber back out so it's less cambered by .5 degree but that's my anal side lol !

My rear needs tweaking for my perfect stance so I need to buy some 245/30 or 255/30 and probably 7mm spacers too.

Maybe rear for next year if not now as winters approaching soon.

Pics to follow soon - catch u guys at players

[AWBimmer]

In reference to the above post I wrote..

10j front et 24 (3" lip) / Camber to 2.15
10j rear et 30 (3" lip) / Camber to -2.5

The pics show that upon mounting the fronts on, I had the new 3" lip and also had 20mm spacer which I couldn't seem to take off at the tyre garage. I then proceeded home, took out my jack and took the wheels off. Then I got a hammer and screwdriver and knocked out my spacer which was just stuck on to the wheel naturally. Once out and the wheel back on, it would hit the strut from the back so thanks to Gaza01 who came a long way just to lend me his 7mm spacers, it did the trick. Now she's sitting perfect IMO.

Dropped with the 20mm spacer and new dish.. drove home to change this myself LOL! Rubbed and rubbed!


Another silly pic with 20mm spacer whilst I was waiting for Shaun to come over..


7mm spacers BEFORE front camber


Pic to show stance AFTER camber with 7mm to come soon...

Got another decent upgrade coming up. Well for me it's fairly big as I've been after this mod for about 7 months now and haven't had any luck finding somebody to make it... but it should be with me by middle of the week.

Cannot wait for Santa Pod now with The Custom Cars boys! My 1st time up there and may even try to fit in Westside on the way back!

[Greg330]

That is crazy wide on the front! How does it drive?!

Very very little rubbing all round mate... It's a dream to drive for me and th road presence is just so much more now

[AWBimmer]

Throwing up a few pics thanks to Kos from C-Unit, Richie, Cam and anybody else that might have snapped these for me I cannot be any happier with that stance now! Just gotta' tweak my rear stance a little and that's my stance game done!

So decided to go Santa Pod with my clique yesterday, The Custom Cars team that is. It was a close call between that and Westside, but since Pod hadn't been done in 4/5 years plus it was a 1st time for many, the drive up was yet again great. Started at 7.20am from Heathrow area and travelled up to Toddington Services M1 for a quick pitstop and pick up more drivers.

We then set off promptly from there amongst many, M6, M5, E30 M3,s E46 M3s, E36 M3s and many more.

The drive was actually pleasant and quite scenic, cobbly buildings, lots of greenery and nice B roads

Anyways, got in, parked up and got cleaning since the crowd came flocking in. I say this often btu really do mean it, CustomCars team always put on a great show and had a great lineup of retro to latest cars from OEM to modified.

I didn't take many pics but a few just of mine, Achu's, Shaun's and Sumil's







Oh and a cheeky pic I came across on Slam Sanctuary's website from Players coverage earlier last week or so.

[AWBimmer]

A video between Sumil and my car, playing the same song. Took a while to time it right but it was pretty cool haha. Shaun and Sumil then did their own thing and man oh man it sounded amazing. Shaun that system was BANGING! Hats off boy!!

[AWBimmer]

So then....

Last show of the season and I usually don't roll to shows unless my clique is there, Custom Cars but I was due to travel to Bluewater anyways on Sunday so another excuse to see a few of the boys.

ShowNGlow was in order. Turned out very good weather and a decent turn out of cars. Some very inspiring stuff to say the least! Team ICE doing their thing.. Tallis doing his thing with his e36 m3 on air and a host of other whips.

Me and Shaun were stealing the attention in some ways with our sounds.. was sounding immense Shaun and that's just 1 x 10" ported!! Makkan0 knows his pooh very well LOL.

Anyways, I took a screenshot from the video that was taken and turned it into a pic. I rarely get to see my whip from that far being driven so without blowing my own trumpet, here's a quick pic.

IT'S NOT A VIDEO.. I just couldn't edit the play button out of the screenshot

[AWBimmer]

Right then.. More mods to come

- Full Aero Lip Custom made Splitter coming this week.
(I may or may not install it since winter's fast approaching)

- Suspension Modification

- Finish up Audio (Now my underseats are connected, it has made a world of a difference now. Jehnerts saved the day LOL).
a. Need E92 rear tweeters
b. Need to relocate Audison Bit One DRC in the ashtray
c. Tune the Audison BitOne
d. Dynamat part of the roof
e. Finish trimming and colour coding the boot install part

- Get tyres on my Style 95 ready for winter and take off Rials, clean, seal and store during winter.

[Josh1a1h]

All this talk of winters.

Last year people didnt even put winters on till December time as the temps hadn't even dropped low enough to even grit roads or anything. So don't rush just yet.

Keep rollin hard with the Rials me thinks... well for now anyways.
