The Toffinator Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share Posted March 29, 2011 Oh its good, cant say its better than the d1 as i have never tried it lol. but when you screw it on its not dodgily shaped if you get me, it doesnt move when its being screwed on. well made bit of kit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Awesome, problem with this D1 Spec one is it dosent actually screw on, So had to put some electrical tape round the gear shaft to hold the gear knob in place. Just looks pikey haha! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I miss cleaning 6p2 Maaan still raw about it ey Even though yours is better now its always going to be that way as she was your first looks well nice dude!!! Thanks mate, just need it lowering a tad more now i think On that note, what springs lads! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Toffinator Posted April 22, 2011 Author Share Posted April 22, 2011 Right had a major feck on with this, my new KYB`S shit themselves and came up into the boot, so i was slightly pissed off to say the least! glad i was goiing slowly as its awful with no dampening. So just bought 2 more soi i can send the old ones back, and while i was on it bought some PI Springs to get it sat nice as i think its too high and soft.Pics when they arrive but will b later next week as nobodys as at work lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Toffinator Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 New suspension. New KYBS with PI springs. rides spot on compared to the cuscos:DThanks for looking:) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 looks pretty gangster buddy, liking the front bumper and grille Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Gonna sit even nicer once they're bedded in! Let us know how she rides later (I'm curious as to how the GT will ride on gas shocks with PIs compared to the NA) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Toffinator Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 Ryan thanks dude, loving how it looks now just want a glanza bum and some 98spec lights, no spoiler And yeh amjad i think it will sit lovely! the ride is stiffer than my cuscos definetely, but i drive mostly on moor roads, back roads etc that are littered with potholes and bumps and i fooking love it! it is stiff and speedbumps are gay as hell, but its really well damped with the gas shocks, and it doesnt roll, you can just feel it absorbing everything. its very well balanced in the cornes, ie lift off oversteer, power on understeer or neutral if your steady on the throttle, just feels mint! i havent once had a bad back its definetely not too stiff:)Hope that sums it up for you bud.

The Toffinator Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 Got a bit of a problem still as well, a while back my heater (which i hadnt used in weeks but was fine before) control i tried to turn it to the hottest setting, and it sort of started sticking at the top like the cable was jammed (which im sure its not as i cant see it jamming) its now turning all the way round but its only slightly warmer than on the coolest setting! any idea what it could be? something internal in the box i was thinking?Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
