The DRKNYT Returns
 
So it has finally returned home, it is all finished.

Over the past month or so, I have installed a sweet set of BC Racing coilovers, Hardrace Tie Rod Ends, Rear toe control arms and rear lower arms. I also put the wheels on the car and took it to Heasmen Suspension for them to work their magic on lowering the car and doing a wheel alignment etc.

I also installed EBC Red Stuff brake pads and EBC Slotted and Dimpled brake rotors.

The car was officially all done yesterday. It is still very dirty as I have yet to give it a detail, which I will do this Saturday.

I shall now enjoy driving it and just stare at it as I rub my eyes in disbelief, I hope you guys enjoyed following this build

SOOOOOOOO CLEAN!!!! I am drooling!

SA3R 09-15-14 11:18 AM

Definitely steer clear of the FDRX7.com forum. It may be Australian, but talk to Marcus about what his opinions of it are, and he will say the same thing. A lot of nasty types on there.

Great FD. Black on black like mine. I'm down in Tasmania. Your car turned out very clean, I love the wheels :)

4g63rotary 09-15-14 11:27 AM

Black on black looks really good man! I see you kept your A/C ....well at least looks as though you did. How are you liking the single turbo and port?

04G35S 09-15-14 12:59 PM

Which K&N filter is on your turbo? I need a cone like that.

DRKNYT 09-15-14 05:14 PM

thanks alot 04G35S, in regards to the filter I don't recall the specs, its just a K&N Cone that fits to my turbo, if you go onto their website, you will be able to see the measurements etc and you can match the size to your turbo. See Link: K&N Universal Round Tapered Cone Air Filters

Yea I heard alot of bad things about that forum SA3R, not just from Marcus either, thank you for the compliment, yeap! work wheels are just to sexy!:nod:

thanks you :) 4g63rotary, yea i kept the A/C, i tried keeping the engine bay as stock looking as possible, battery not in the boot but still in engine bay etc, the A/C works like a charm for those hot Australian Summers :cool:, im loving the single turbo and the mild port, just after half throttle its pulls me back into my seat, its very, very quick and the port sounds amazing! :)

4g63rotary 09-15-14 06:21 PM

Thats awesome, just saw your vid. The car sounds really nice! man that turbo!

Mps_hell 09-15-14 07:24 PM

Man who made that idler pully? Looks differnt:scratch:

DRKNYT 09-21-14 11:02 PM

thanks alot 4g63rotary, yea that turbo is something special! lol

Mps_hell the pully isn't the stock one

here are some more pics i took over the weekend

Mps_hell 09-22-14 04:06 AM

Oh man!

model? Can't say I have seen that one on a crumple door. I have had my head under 3 or 4 of them. I can't bring my self to pay $300 to get on from The US

Not too sure of the model :scratch:, i can dig up the old archives and find out for you. yea for $300 you gotta think twice, but its all worth it in the end IMO
