Just back from CBC Malaga.
They call it HK1010INA, & it cost $16.00 + GST, walk in price.
It is physically identical to the one from the group buy.
One other thing, when I looked carefully in the Padded Bag from Senol, there was also included a small pillow of PTFE Grease, as attached pics. Probably for pre-lubing the inner of the bearing.

Yep, I used the grease. Great research Peter. It might be worth creating a dedicated post for this for the people who don't read this thread.

What software do you use to put them all together and what records the telemetry?

I use Racerender, to put it all together. I have an external QStarz 10GHz GPS which connects to my phone via Bluetooth. I use Racechrono on my phone for timing. I found the internal GPS on the phone wasn't totally reliable and didn't update fast enough for accurate info.

Fujitsubo Legalis R exhaust, that i stole from Carmikey. Needed a good polish (picture shows the difference between the side i polished and the original). Second picture shows it fitted. It's actually quieter than i expected.

New exhaust looks awesome. Definitely one of my favourite exhaust systems. Can hardly ever tell the difference between these, Berk and Legalis-R systems though

New side indicators look good, must look great now that they match the front indicators :)

Eibach Pro Kit Springs 2016/03/29 09:30:14 (permalink)

I've finally had time over Easter to get my new Eibach Pro-Kit springs installed.
As you can see from the pics, there is a huge difference in the springs.
Unfortunately the dust seals from the top of the front struts fell apart, so i've ordered new ones and will have to pull it all apart again to fit them :(

That fallen to bits dust seal thingo in the front top mount can be replaced with a bit of plastic cut from an oil bottle.
Those springs sure look a lot different . What ride height difference ?

I've ordered genuine dust seals from Amayama, they're only a couple of dollars each.
Ride height is exactly the same at the moment, but i expect them to drop a little bit once they've settled. I did take pictures of the guard height above the wheels with a tape measure, but as there was almost no difference there was no point uploading the pics.
Ride comfort is actually smoother on minor bumps and undulations, but as expected is a bit harsher on larger bumps and potholes. Surprisingly, steering feels a lot more accurate and pointy.
I'd like to get Bilstein Yellow shocks sometime, as my original shocks don't control the rebound as much as i'd like.

No problems about hijacking the thread lol.
Any discussion that might help other owners save money is always welcome.


Sorry to bring this up again but looking into it is there any reason why we cannot use a BK-1010 instead as it is sealed on one side similar to the original square one
