HAHA! Scared your wallet just then didn't I.....lol
 
Compared to the cost of a PFC + tune, it's not a huge difference if you're patient & prepared.

This long weekend I finished installing the APEX lowered springs on the front.
The difference between the King springs is night and day! The APEX sit the car completely level (maybe very slightly higher at the back)
It seems to be absorb the bumps better and is much more comfortable. Shocks are set on full soft, no idea what brand though.
The car sits a little higher now as well.
I also swapped out the shagged front roll bar bushes with new OEM ones whilst I was under there.
Attempted to change the ball joints as well but couldn't get them off easily (Kinda gave up didn't try too hard :)
 
Here is a quick pic after I had taken it for a drive to settle the springs.
 

 

Pics of some parts waiting to be installed.
 



 
Kirk mounts, KO fan shroud and some other bits still in transit.

Pfffttt.........you call that a turbo. jks

Okay, so for anyone thinking of mounting an AW11 oil pressure sender to a 3sgte Gen3 head here is the part you need to make it happen.
1/8 BSP female to 1/8 BSP male adapter/extension. Cost for one of these is roughly $2.00
You need to use the short extension so the larger sender clears the engine hook. The standard gen 3 oil pressure switch is tiny in comparison which obviously fits without issue.
 

 
Am happy now that every gauge in the AW11 cluster works exactly as it should with the 3sgte :)

I'm loving your work Nick!

Great thread mate, love your cooler install and the wheels suit to a tee.

15% window tint would suit it nice too. Can refer you to someone that'll do it cheap (about $150).

That's a good price Jay. I am thinking of tinting it.
 
In other news I purchased another piece of AW11 memorabilia to go with my original Japanese brochure. Might display it in the library at home.
 

 

Superb!
